rrcniler  Guechoff  Issued  a  statement' 
today  on  the  attitude  of  Turkey,  saying: 

•'With  prld.'  ■  I  Ml;  accords  with 
the    miserabli  .-he    playis    In    the 

l^uropean  concert,  Turkey  has  just  de- 
.  larcd  that  the  Idetttical  note  of  the 
three  Balkan  states  does  not  merit  an 
answer."  :  - 

The  prerrtier  characterized  this  as 
comical  In  view  of  I.iord  Salisbury's 
definition  of  Turkey  at  th6  Berlin  cPn- 
K fence  as  "A  p^ower  dependent  upoii 
t^ie  protection  of  others  for  Its  exist- 
ence,"  and   adds: 

"Turkey  also  accuses  the  Balkan 
states  of  lacking  deference  to  the  great 
pow<>r8.  It  Is  ridiculous  that  a  govern- 
ment, that  slncf  the  Crlrpean  wur  tijs 
done  nothing  but  trample  under  foot  Its 
I'k'dscs  to  the  frreat  powers,  upon  whose 
protection  It  depends,  should  accuse  us 
of  falhiie  to  .show  respect  for  its  pro- 
tectors."

LIBERAL  VICTORY  WON 

BY  THE  ALIEN  VOTE 


tilmmm^m 


The  extraordinary  niann*r  in  wliltli 
the  Liberal  party  recently  scored  Its 
"victory"  in  Saskatchewan.  thereby 
demonstrating.  It  was  claimed,  that  one 
province,  at  least,  still  kept  the  faith 
for  reciprocity,  is  not  to  go  down  In 
history  with  untarnished  laurels.  If  Mr. 
n.  J.  "Wylle,  member  of  the  provincial 
parliament  from  Maple  Creek,  and  sev- 
eral of  his  associates,  have  anytliing 
to   do   with    It. 

Mr.  Wylle.  arriving  at  the  lOinpress 
last  night,  declared  that  he  has  first- 
hand evidence  to  prove  that  the  earnest 
and  InOeffttlgablo  workers  In  the  Lib- 
eral ranks  deliberately  tricked  the  pro- 
vince with  an  alien  vote,  and  otherwl.«<e 
po  tampered  the  British  Xorth  America 
Act  that  an  effort  is  now  underway  to 
have  the  Dominion  governnieiu  lake  a 
hand    In    the   matter. 

This  statement,  on  Hie  part  of  Mr. 
Wylle,  was  not  offered  as  one  of  the 
iiHunl  after-election  Px,)lanation«  in- 
tended to  cover  up  an  unpleuslng  <le- 
feat.  but  as  a  fad  which  could  be 
proven    upon    a    proper    Imiiilry.    l... 

Alien    Tota    Won 

"I  intend  to  say  soinethiiiK  about  It 
when  poillament  convtn<s  in  Hegiiia," 
Mr.  Wylle  said  last  night.  "It  is  a  fact 
that  the  Liberals  made  their  gains  by 
putting  aliens,  such  as  Americans  and 
others,  on  the  voting  lists,  and  we  can 
prove  it.  ,\aturally,  these  gv'Utlemen, 
being  Americans,  favored  reciprocity, 
and  our  Liberal  .friends  reaped  the 
benefit.  Also,  they  have  not  failed  to 
ailvertlse  the  completeness  of  their  vic- 
tory. It  now  remains  to  be  seen  how 
iinneet  that  victory  was. 

"I  have  announced  repeatedly  from 
the  platform,  and  I  still  Insist  that 
reciprocity  would  b«  fatal  for  Canada.

OTTAWA.  Ont.,  Oct.  17.— The  depart- 
ment of  labor  returns  .show  that  whole- 
sale prices  continued  to  decline  dur- 
ing September,  standing  at  1.T2.5,  as 
compared  with  13.1.4  in  August  and  128 
in  September  last  year.  These  num- 
bers show  a  comparison  of  the  prices 
prevailing  at  the  present  time  with 
average  prices  during  ten  years,  1890- 
1899,  some  257  articles  being  entered 
In  the  estimates.  The  downward  move- 
n-vent  during  September  was  due  chiefly 
to  declines  in  the  price  of  fresh  vege- 
tables, especially  potatoes,  while  there 
were  slight  increases  in  several  com- 
modities, notably  dairy  products,  fish. 
Iron,  hides,  boots,  slioes,  ahthraclto 
coal  and  miscellaneous  building  ma- 
toria!ls.  In  regard  to  the  retail  prices 
the  chief  feature  of  the  month  was  the 
rise  In  the  price  of  anthracite  coal  In 
many    cities    of    Western    tJanada.

GLASGOW.  Oct.  17.— The  Glasgow 
TraniT\-ay  system  Is  considered  to  rank 
au-ioiig  the  h-'st,  if  not  to  be  the  very 
best  in  the  United  Knigdom.  Owing 
to  the  adoption  of  the  extended  half- 
penny fare  the  ofhclals  of  the  under- 
ground system  declare  that  they  are 
no  longer  In  a  position  to  compete 
with  the  tramways.  With  the  Intro- 
duction of  the  half-penny  fare,  passen- 
gers are.  in  some  cases,  able  to  travel 
over  a  mile  for  that  price,  with  the 
result  tliat  over  six  million  additional 
passengers  ha,Ye  been  carried  hy..  the 
tramways.  Owing  to  the  lar^e  surplus 
the  -subway  company  has  In  hand,  they 
are  able  at  present  to  Ignore  the  de- 
<Ttnse  of  between  £4000  and  £6000  in

The  return  shown  above  of  the  ship- 
ping returns  for  Victoria  Indicate  the 
great  development  being  made  In  local 
trade  during  tho  past  six  months.  When 
It  Is  considered  that  during  the  six 
months  of  the  first  half  of  tlie  fiscal 
year  ending  on  September  30,  a  grand 
total  of  5747  ves.seis.  foreign  and  coast- 
wise, in  and  out,  came  and  went  from 
local  wharves,  as  compared  with  a  total 
of  7254  with  tonnage  of  4,826,769  for 
the  whole  year  of  1909-10,  the  Increase 
is  seen  to  be  s  considerable  one.  The 
present  average  shows  approximately  a. 
thousand  vessels  come  and  go  at  the 
port   of  Victoria    every   month. 

Not  one  of  the  eastern  ports  can  show 
anything  like  the  record  of  shipping  ns 
does  Victoria.  The  ra.pidlty  in  which 
the  business  grows  is  indicated  by.  tho

While  the  coastwise  trade  Is  advanc- 
ing rapidly  It  will  be  noted  that  It  Is  In 
the  foreign  trade  that  the  biggest  ad- 
vances are  being  made.  How  high  a  place 
the  development  has  given  Victoria  In 
Canada's  shipping  trade  Is  indicated  by 
comparison     with/'other    ports.  Last 

year  the  foreign  trade  of  Montreal,  In- 
ward and  outward,  totalled  845  vessels, 
with  3,38&,951  tons,  as  compared  With 
2834  with  3,522,851  at  Victoria  In  the 
same  time,  and  at  St.  John  the  foreign 
shipping  inward  and  outward  in  the 
same  space  was  2442  vessels  of  2,013,- 
425  tons,  while  Halifax  had  2344  vessels 
in  and  out,  foreign,  of  ,1,111,635  tons. 

As  was  stated  a  few  days  ago,  the 
amount  of  freight  landed  by  foreign 
trading  vessels  at  tho  Outer  wharves 
hss  trebled  d^-ing  the  ..past  two.^years,  . 
and  the  wharves  are  piled  with  freight 
constantly.  Victoria  Is  mado  the  dla- 
tributlng  point  for  a  considerable 
amoimt  of  cargo  from  the  Orient  for 
eastern  Canadian  ports,  from  800  to 
1000  tons  being  landed  by  nearly  every

niaasacred  Christian  Bulgarians  by  the

jKlrdohali,  about  forty  miles  to  the  west 
of  Muetapha  JPacha,  penetrating  several 
miles  Into  Bulgarian  territory,  the  Bul- 
garians retiring. 

All  r&ports  received  hero  indicate  that 
there  Is  serious  flirhtlng  in  progrtsB  at 
various  points.  Including  the  district 
north  of  Guslnje.  The  decision  of  the 
government  to  declare  war  is  welcomed 
by  the  Turkish  peopl«.  The  Bulgarian 
and  Scivlan  ministers  will 
leave  here  tomorrow  as  well 
Greek  minister. 

It  liad  been  considered  possible  at 
midnight  that  war  with  Greece  inigni 
be  averted.  The  Greek  minister  again 
ilils  evening  interviewed  the  Turtisli 
foreign  niltiister  who  ni.tuioned  that

vites the  soldiers  to  respect  the  lives 
of  the  non-coml)aiants,  women  and

them  do  not  wish  to  fight  and  do  not 
sympathize  with  the  objects  of  tho

LONDON,  Oct.  17. — Quite  a  sensation 
was  created  at  Port.fniouth  laet  night 
by  the  official  announcement  that  Lady 
Meux.  wife  of  Admiral  Sir  H.  Meux. 
would  lay  the  keel  plate  of  a  new  super- 
Drcadnouglit  on  Monday  morning.  This 
Is  three  montlis  earlier  tlian  the  ap- 
pointed time  and  creates  a  record  in 
no.V(il   shipbuilding. 

Con.sldf  rabic  nignincance  Is  attached 
also  to  what  amounts  to  a  complete 
volte  face  on  the  part  of  the  Admiralty 
In  ordering  nn  armored  cruiser  and  the 
DreadnouRht  Inflexible  to  Join  the

stock Commissioner,  In  The  Dally  Colonist  of  October  16.  " 

"Already  here  In  the  west  the  price  of  meat  is  becoming  a  serious  mat- 
ter to  the  households  of  men  dependent  on  salaries.  The  worklng^man 
and  the  mechanic  are  paid  sufficiently  high  wages  not  to  feel  the  pinch 
but  It  Is  being  felt  with  apprehension  by  those  engaged  in  clerical  work' 
and  they  are  casting  about  to  see  how  economy  may  be  effected  in  other 
directions  to  insure  the  ability  of  procuring  tUs.  necessary  article  of 
food." 

This  is  enunlly  applicable  to  aU  Other  necessaries  of  life  such  as  milk 
butter  and  eggs.  '

Hon.  Dr.  Young  Announces 
That  the  Provincial  Govern- 
ment Will  Foster  Art  in  a 
Most  Substantial  Manner 


When  the  provincial  government  resolve* 
upon  providing:  further  additions  to 
llm  new  biocku  that  are  now  being 
added  to  the  parliament  bulldlnuii, 
a  museum  will  be  provided  for,  and 
a  portion  of  that  muBcum  will  be  devoted 
to  the  purposes  of  an  art  gallery,  with  a 
view  to  foaterlng  the  artistic  spirit  In  the 
city    and    in    the    province. 

That  is  the  statement  tliat  was  mado  yes-

PUrt  of  the  new  government  buildings.  It 
;.1»  my  Intention  to  have  the  plans  drawn  eo 
that  a  portion  of  that  museum  can  be  used 
as  a  picture  gallery.  I  have  already  begun 
to  purchase  paintings,  a  few  of  which,  1 
think,  will  form  the  pucleu*  of  a  good  col- 
lodion.

"With  the  assistance  of  this  Club  and 
those  outsider.";  who  take  an  Interest  In.,  art 
development  I  hope-  th«t  We  will  eventually 
be  able  to- have  a  collection  of  pictures  of 
which  we  may  be  ptoud.  It  Is  my  Intention 
to  commence  with  a.  series  of  local  pictures. 
I  had  the  pleasure  last  week  of  viewing 
several  by  a  provincial  painter  and  I  think 
X  may  purchase  three  or  tour  of  them  to 
start  off  with.  In  the  matter  of  selecting 
pictures  for  tho  gnllerj'  1  think  the  Arts 
and  Crafts  Club  can  be  of  very  material 
.  asal.-!tanco    to    us, 

"It  Is  a  good  IhlnR  for  the  people  of  this 
country  to  realize  that  there  is  more  In  the 
world  than  tho  material  things  they  are 
Invariably  engaged  In  looking  for,  and  I 
welcomu  the  efforts  of  the  Arts  and  Crafts 
Club  at  this  time,  a  time  when  It  Is  alleged 
that  we  are  reaching  the  limits  In  material- 
ism. Our  progress  in  material  things  has 
been  so  A?reat  in  this  counti-y  that  I  some- 
times think  it  has  altogether  overshadowed 
the  artistic  and  the  aesthetic  aide  of  life.

Vote   of   Thanks 

Dean  Doull  performed  the  gracious  task 
of  moving:  a  vote  of  Jlianks  to  the  minister 
of  education,  and  In  doing  so  he  welcomed 
the  statement  that  had  been  made  regard- 
ing the  establishment  of  a  picture  gallery 
for  the  province.  He  considered  that  that 
step  would  do  mora  to  foster  art  In  the 
province  than  anything:  else,  and  with  .the 
continued  activities  of  the  Arts  and  Crafts 
Club  he  saw  ft  bright  future  ahead,  of  Vic- 
toria as  a  centre  of  art.  It  had  been  said 
that  out  in  the  west  the  people  were  ao 
taken  up  with  th©  pursuit  of  tho  almighty 
dollar  they  had  neither  time  nor  Inclina- 
tion for  the  study  of  anything  else.  That 
state  of  things,  If  It  ever  actually  cxiste/l, 
w.Ts  about  tij  end  with  the  advance  of  the 
new   era,    which   he   welcomed   most  heartUj'. 

flaynr  Beckwlth  seconded  tho  vole  of 
thanks  and  stated  that  to  him,  as  the 
executive  head  of  the  city  of  Victoria,  the 
exhibition  was  extremely  gratifying.  He 
\rcrerrcd  to  the  announcement  made  by  Hon, 
Dr.  Young  regarding  the  gallery,  and  stated 
that  It  would  be  the  best  thing  that  could 
possibly  happen  in  the  interest  of  the  de- 
volripment  of  the  citizens  along  artistic  and 
cultured    lines. 

Will    Attract    Best    People 

Mr.  J.  .T.  .Shailcross.  in  supporting  the 
motion,  said  that  It  should  be  their  object 
to  attract  people  of  artistic  temperament 
to  this  part  of  the  country;  and  he  was 
confident  that  the  action  of  the  govein- 
nienl,  us  suggested  by  the  Hon.  Dr.  Ytiung, 
would  go  a  long  way  in  that  direction. 
Turning  to  the  exhiblllon.  ho  asked  them 
to  rtmember  that  the  work  contained  there- 
in was  the  work  of  local  talent.  He  Mumght 
it  showed  not  only  a  wonderful  activity  on 
tha  part  of  the  responsible  club  but  also 
a  wonderful  development  on  the  spirit  of 
art.  It  would  bo  a  great  thing  If  a  school 
of  art  could  be  established  in  the  city,  and 
he  was  not  without  hope  that  In  time  his 
wish  might  be  realized,  for  the  government 
had  already  shown  that  it  was  not  wholly 
taken  up  with  the  study  of  material  things 
by  setting  aside  a  great  area  of  land  in 
th^  Island  to  be  beautified  and  preserved 
as    a    playground    for    (he    people. 

The  vote  was  heartily  passed  and  the 
exhibition    was   open    to    the   public. 

The  lirise  drawing  takes  place  this  fore- 
noon. A  large  number  of  tickets  have  been 
sold.

valuable  concession  and  one  which  I

yi|ioe  where  people  hive,  and  to  many

<f«matry.*'  His  verdict  is  that  of  all 
who  itave  had'  the  oK>ortunUy  of  leam- 
ips  the  things  which  he  has  learned. 
Ikren  though  -  very  few  may  have  done 
•e  to  tiiie  same  degree.  It  may  be 
frankly  admitted  that  not  many  of  us 


they  would  not  yield  any  oil.  But  W' 
have  been  llndlng  ourselves  and  dln- 
coverlngr  our  country,  and  now  we  know 
that  we  liave  a  land  of  mirpaM.sIni?

province  accessible.  nallways  art- 
necessary.  Some  of  these  have  been 
built;  others  are  In  cour.se  of  ronwtruc- 
tlon;  others  remain  to  be  undertaken. 
But  rallway.s  are  not  sufflclent  of 
themselves.  We  must  also  have  high- 
ways, and  It  Is  with  the  greatest  satis- 
faction that  wo  observe  how  alert  the 
Premier  and  his  colleagues  are  In  re- 
spect to  this  aspect  of  provincial  pol- 
icy. It  will  only  be  when  the  province 
has  been  grld-lroned  with  flrst-cla»s

world  Will  understand,  wli^t  a  great

Our  evening  contemporary  seems  to 
be  devoting '  needless  space  to  the  dis- 
cussion of  what  can  properly  be  called 
"Litquld  Assets."  As  a  matter  of  fact 
■i  the  expression  has  no  absolutely  |lxed 
meaning  in  business.  What  one  person 
might  regard  as  a  "liquid  assot"  an- 
other might  not  so  classify.  As  a  gen> 
eral  rule  what  la  understood  by  the 
term  Is  something  that  can  readily  be 
converted  Into  money  at  Its  face  value. 
A  debt  amply  secured  is  a  liquid  as- 
set, because  the  creditor  has  a  right  to 


but  the  telegram  says  there  will  be  a 
surplus  of  feed.  This  raises  a  very  In- 
teri'stlng  question.  What  ought  to  be 
the  policy  of  Alberta  farmers  under 
these  conditions?  The  coarse  gralnw,  the 
hay  and  the  straw,  are  very  valuable 
nsscts  and  when  converted  Into  beet 
would  not  only  nupi>ly  a  market  that 
can  consume  a  great  deal  more  than  is 
offered,  but  wouUl  prove  a  source  of 
profit  to  the  farniers.  Moreover  onco 
the  farmers  have  embarked  In  a  large 
way  upon  the  .slall-feedlnK  of  (•attle, 
a  revolution  In  methods  of  agriculture 
will  have  been  begun.  Mixed  farming 
and  dairying  will  follow  as  a  matter  of 
course,  and  this  Implies  a  denser  pop- 
ulation and  the  placing  of  the  prosper- 
ity of  the  Prairie  Provinces  upon  a 
less  fluctuating  basis  than  is  to  be  ex- 
pected when  everything  Uopenda  upon

It  Ifl  a  very  fortunate  thing  that  both 
lbs  JDottilnion  and  Provincial  govern- 
ments in  Canada  appreciate  the  Vijrr 
great  importance  of  Investigating,  deal- 
ing with  experimentally  and  In  every 
way  encouraging  the  several  phases  of 
husbandry.  In  this  way  the  individual 
farmer  receives  advice  and  assistance. 
Which  a  few  years  ago  wore  not  avail- 
able to  him.  We  know  of  no  more  in- 
teresting problem,  or  one  of  greater 
practical  value,  than  that  which  is  pre- 
sented by  the  conditions  in  Alberta  to 
which  reference  Is  above  made.  We 
venture  the  opinion  that  time  will  show

•Sir — An  interesting  jinnouncement 
appeared  in  yesterday's  issue  of  your 
japer  relative  to  the  polii-y  of  settling 
till-  land  in  Wesrern  Au.slralUi  and 
wherein  it  was  stated  timt  the  govern- 
ment waj<  making  cxhiiuatlng  ln(iuirie« 
In  India  concerning  tlmo-cxpiri'd  sol- 
diers In  view  of  securing  a.  number  of 
them    to    go    to    Australia. 

This  announcement  ha.s  a  peculiar 
signlflcance  to  the  condition  of  affairs 
porvallliig  in  Western  (.."nnada  and  more 
especially  does  It  closely  affect  our 
own  interests  as  regards  Brltl.sh  Co- 
lumbia. 

I  crave  the  privilege  of  expressing 
an  opinion  on  tills  policy  of  the  Aus- 
tralian Commonwealth  through  the 
medium  of  your  paper,  and  thank  you 
In  anticipation    for   granting   same. 

Throug'hout  British  Columbia  at  the 
present  time  iher^|«^^|^ifng  need  for 
the  practical  faw»ir,^,>W^  tentative 
schf R|es  are  Ming  mooted '  and  ooion^ 
JRation  Qoniponfeft  ore  being  discussed 
in  view  0^  some  iietion^  being  taken 
towards  having  thia  province  more  ex- 
peditiously settled  with  "good  men  of 
the  SOU"  who  will  apply  themselves 
diligently  toward  making  the  land  pro- 
ductive. 

If  the  people  of  today  residing  In 
British  Columbia  and  more  especially 
do  I  refer  to  those  who  are  living  on 
Vancouver  Island.  would  combine 
through  some  source  or  another  and 
institute  a  scheme  whereby  time-ex- 
pired men  of  the  navy  and  army  could 
be   brought    out    here    and    given   small 


t»y  the  un.satlsfactory  state  of  effalrs 
At  pri-sent  can  be  moditled  if  not  totally 
obliterated  once  and  for  all.  What  the 
goverinnent  of  Australia  can  do  and 
li.i.'-  done  HO  ^ul•ces^fill|y  for  the  coun- 
try and  the  people,'  no  also  oan  the 
soverninciit  of  British  Ccdumbla  be  re- 
nulrcil  tr  perform  a  similar  act  and 
apply  funds  to  Institute  a  scheme  along 
the  lines  of  a  like  nature  that  cannot, 
to  any  right-thinking  man,  be  but  pro- 
ductive of  the  hest  possible  re><ults  to 
the  individual  and  the  community  at 
large.  C()-opeaatlve  schemes  as  earrled 
out  In  l)enmurk  and  Cerniany  and  have 
been  coiisidored  in  Ireland  tor  the  mar- 
keting of  agrloultural  produet.s  can  be 
a'lipUed  to  this  province  with  every 
likelihood  of  complete  success.  There 
is  no  earthly  use  in  the  advancement 
of  any  policy  affecting  the  welfare  of 
a  country  unles.s  coincident  with  same 
is  some  scheme  put  Into  effect  to  build 
up,  malntaiu  and  develop  the  agricul-

iruetB  Bt  land  upon  whlfli  lu  cairy  en 
the  light  phases  of  agricultural  Indus- 
tries. I  think  the  Navy  Leagues  and  all 
other  leagues  that  are  at  present  In 
existence  ^or  looking  after  the  Inter- 
ests of  our  soldiers  and  sailors,'  would 
co-operate  iieartily  in  the  project.  Ar- 
rangements could  be  made  whereby 
the  pensions  coming  to  the  men  could 
b«  obmmuted.  and  this  money  would  go 
a  long  wtiy  towards  dvercdmlng  the 
preliminary  expenses  of  transportation, 
etc.,  that  would  Itave  fo  i>e  met  in  ttte 
nrst  instance. 

We  are  livinfr  in  an  age  when  every- 
body seems  puffed  up  with  a  certain 
false  idea  of  importance  regarding  tba 
pretentlalltics  and  resources  of  Brit- 
ish Columbia,  for.  great  a*  they  are, 
y^t  as  mnnltcly  4imall  will  they  become 
unless  something  Is  done  whereby-  the 
country  Is  settled  with  active  workera 
in  agricultural  and  industrial  enter- 
rriscs. 

The  cost  of  living  today  in  Victoria 
Is  vexatious  and  the  reason  for  it  Is 
non-existent,  but  rather  is  it  owing 
to  the  lack  of  a  solid  good  land  policy 
being  in  operation  thereby  precluding 
the  country  frorii  being  .tettled  with  In- 
dustrious   workers    enabling   the   neces- 

~  sarles  of  life  to  be'  produced  at  our 
doors  rather  than  supplied  us  from 
abroad.  It  is'  a  well  known  fact  in 
Victoria  todajr,  that  even  with  t}i«  im- 
port of  mttk  from  Seattle,  scores  '  of 
families  are  unaiblo  to  obtain  a  daily 
supply,  and  this  trealment.I  had  to  ex- 

t  pericnce   for  something  like  six   weeks, 


I  have/ nor- 'i«t««J*|*i|-''*ir'Wrtt« 
urntlvely.  but  to  those  who  desire  fig- 
ures same  can  Ije  «l^iBf4  *ron»  Blue

of  supply  and  demand  lis  concerned  af- 
fecting the  huinan  life  In  the  different 
countries    I    havp    mentioned. 

But  the  other  day  It  was  publicly 
announced  that  Russia  Is  entering  upon 
a  big  scheme  for  the  betterment  of  Its 
peasant  classes  and  I  believe  the  whole 
world  in  general  Is  making  changes 
with  a  view  to  encouraging  the  small 
farmer  to  settle  on  the  land  and  there- 
by secure  the  prosperity  of  whatever 
country  to  which  he  may  happen  to  be- 
long. Without  the  soils  being  made

The  artists  and  craftsmen  and 
women  of  Vancouver  Island  are  to  be 
congratulated  on  the  high  level  of  ex- 
cellence shown  In  their  work  now  be- 
ing exhibited  at  the  Al«j;andra  Clul>. 
The  paintings  and  drawings  are  well 
displayed  on  large  screens  arransed 
round  the  wall.s  of  the  hallrooin,  while 
the  exhibits  of  carving,  enamel  and 
needlework,  and  handicrafts  of  all 
klnd.s.  are  conveniently  arranged  for  in- 
spection on  tables  running  down  the 
centre    of    the    hall.  ! 

To  begin  with  the  pictures,  the  cata- 
logue numbers  commence  on  the  first 
screen  to  the  right  of  the  entrance, 
and  on  this  Bcrepii  one  may  note  No.  6, 
"BuBli  li'ire,  •  .Shawnigan,"  by  Mrs. 
Shallcross,  as  a  clever  little  study, 
<iulet  Intone  and  with  a  conimendnble 
reticence  in  the  matter  of  unnecessary 
detail.  -'^Wii^.  hy  Mls.s  Kate  Smith. 
who  shoWplpveral  other  excellent  ani- 
mal an<l"  fllufe' subjects  In  the  exhibi- 
tion, is  a  Bljetph- la ^U.s,  entitled  "Mid- 
day Heat,"  o«,%95j»(p;and  men  In  strong 
sunlight.  The  bbld  modelling  of  the 
animals  and  figures,  and  the  trs^tmtnt, 
of  strong  contrasts  of  light  antf  shafSe 
ore,  thoroughly  well  ca^pleid  o^t  JNo. 
ill,  a  very  simple  oil  Mcetch  -"of  old 
piles  standing  near  low  water  mark, 
•X>n  Cowlchan  Bay,"  .by  Mlsp  WaM. 
shows  good  coloring  in  the  water  tints 
of  the  fo'reground.  and  the  distant  hlUs. 
Another  oil  palntlhg.  No.  8».  "Santa 
Barbara,"  by  Mrs.  C.  F.  Walker.  Is  no- 
ticeable for  the  e/fectlve  way  In 
which  the  bright  sunset  glow  which 
pervadss  the  whole  landscspSi  hss  hf.pn 


both  in  design  and  coloring.  Mr.l 
Mold's  enamel  work  as  also  his  inlaid 
and  hiunmered  copper  exhibits  are  well 
worth  seeing  as  marvels  of  good  work- 
manship. The  wood  carving  of  Miss 
Grace  Smith  and  Miss  Hendry  is  most 
graceful  and  delicate,  while  the  plaster 
cast  of  foliage  by  R.  Dermott  is  one  of 
the  cleverest  pieces  of  work  In  the 
sho".v. 

Altogether  artists  and  craftsmen 
alike  deserve  the  highest  j^ralse  for  the' 
high  sitandurd  lliey  have  attained, 
which  has  made  the  third  exhibition 
of  the  Arts  and  Crafts  Club  a  credit 
to  that  organisation,  and  a  promise  of 
further  artistic  progress   for  the  Island.

this   point, 

Mo.st    people    loolted   upon    the   bunch- 
>,-i-as3   and    sasc-brusli   country   of   very 
little     value,    except    that    the    former 
might   be   used   as  cattle  ranges.     Now 
we  know  that   where  water  can  be  got 
upon   it,    the   finest  crops  In    the   world 
( iin  be  grown,  and  we  are  beginning  to 
understand   that   b>    the   Instrumentality 
of    "dry    ITarming"    all    of    It      may      ba 
turned    to    hlguly    profitable    use.      This 
observation   t-ppiles    to   an   area  of   very 
great    dlmensionB.       Our     timber    lends 
amJ    the  hillsides  were  looked  upon  un- 
til   very    recently    as    non-agricultural. 
We  are  learning  that  along  ^ame  of  tlie 
higher   levels   there   are   very    conalder- 
uble    areas    of  •  land    well      adapted      to 
farming,    the    exl.stenco    of    which    was 
not   even  suspected.     In   the   earlier  re- 
ports on  the  Upper  Fraser  Valley,  tha 
timber    was    classed    a«    of      no      com- 
mercial   value.  ..;<»i||    "wo*^    problibly 
chiefly    because    It    was    at    that    time 
.so  inaccessible- as  to  h\alte  it  not  worth 
considering.       The    Minister    of     Lands 
went  up  and  Insiuicted  It,  and   he   tells 
us    that  It   Is   a   fine   region   from    the 
.standpoint  ot  the  lumberman,  and  that 
the    construction    oiT    the    Grand   Trunk 
Pacinc  will  lead  to  the  establishment  of 
large    ir.dustrles    there.      A    few    years 
ago  The  Colonlat  pulillshed  a  statement 
to    the   effect    that   in  .the   Skeeria   and 
Naas  valleys  there  w|Ui  much  farming 
land.      We    were   told   '•ofiiclatly*'    that 
we    ought    to    be  , more*  careful     about 
such  sta:emcnts  because  we  wiight  mis-, 
lead   the  public  .  Now  every  oio  ^Sihows 
that    thj    siatementVwas    true.-    Years 
ago     government      surveyors      reported 
that  the  north  end  of  Vancouver  Island 
was  well  adapted  for  settlement.     The 
reports  were  published   in   the   sessional 
paper.'*,     and     forthwith      foraotten      by 
every  person   except  the  men  who  made 
them    and    one    or    two    officials    of    the 
l^andH    Department.      Now      every  ,    one 
knows    about    it.      And    ."JO   It    has    gone; 
.40    also    has    it    gone    In      every      newly 
opened    country. 

A  f|uarter  of  a  century  ago  the  resi- 
dents of  the  State  of  Washington 
would  tell  an  inc|utrer  that  there  was 
some  good  farming  land  In  the  river 
^  alleys,  but  that  nio.'»t  of  tlie  state 
was  either  ^v  desert  or  so  heavily  tim- 
bered as  to  be  valueless  for  farming. 
On  an  old  map  of  New  Brunswick 
there  Is  written  ucro.ss  what  l.s  now 
the  great  county  of  Aroostook,  Maine, 
ond  the  smaller,  hut  eciually  rich 
Carloton  county,  N.  B.  the  words  •'Good

overy  one  believed,  that  Northern  On-

aU  used  to  lument  tliat  the  continuity 
of  the  Dominion  wa.-*  broken  by  the  ex-

we  recall  one  much-tiuoted  maga/.lne

our  contemporary  will  agree  with  him.

*2.50  per  acre  and  made  a  part  pay- 
ment on  It.  he  ,would  pay  lip  the  bal- 
ance rather  than  lose  It,  geeing  that 
similar  land  could  not  be  bought  for 
less  than'IS.OO  an  acre;  or  that  If  the 
original  purchaser  was  unable  to  com- 
plete the  ptirobase.  some  ons  else 
would  be  idad  to  do  so.  the  soms  «•• 
mark  applies  to^  land  bought  at  |5.00 
an  acre  before  the  rise  in  price.  Our 
contemporary  asks  why  Sir-  Richard 
did  not  Include  our  unsold  Crown  lands 
In  his  "liquid  toalande."  He  might  have 
done  so.  if  he  were  presenting  a  gen- 
eral balance  sheet;  but  he  did  not  do 
so,  and  we  do  not  see  what  point  can 
be  niade  out  of  the  fact  that  he  did 
not  do  so. 

Our  contemporary  asks  how  much 
these  purchased  lands  would  bring  If 
tlic  government  were  compelled  to 
auction  them. '  In  our  humble  Judgment 
they  w:ould  bring  a  great  deal  more 
than  any  balances  that  may  bs  due

"Contemporary  that,  while  It  may  be 
good  politics  to  make  every  reel  Or 
Imaginary  point  against  the  Mc- 
Bride  administration,  it  lis  hardly 
patriotic  to  seek  to  convey  the  Im- 
pression that  the  Crown  lands  of  Brit- 
ish Columbia  are  worth  les."?  than  the 
selllnff  price.  We  do  not  really  sup- 
pose that  our  contemporary  does  any 
harm  by  such  a  cotirse,  because  ao 
one  takes  it  seriously.  Nevertheless 
It  (if>"s  not  seem  ntilto  ritrlil  to  in.sln-

The  Citizens'  Committee,  which  has 
the  matter  of  rail  connection  in  hand, 
was  called  together ,  yesterday  to  hear 
a  report  of '  the  present  state  of  its 
work.  Nothing  new  was  brought  out, 
and  the  committee  contented  Itself  with 
thanking  Mi:.  Borden  and  Mr.  Burrell 
for  th.e  Interest  they  had  exhibited  In 
tho  matter  and  with  conllrmlng  recent 
correspondence  carried  on  by  the  chair- 
man. 

Tile  condition  In  which  the  matter 
stands  Is  as  follows:  The  prime  minis- 
ter is  endeavoring  to  get  in  touch  with 
Mr.  Waddel)  the  eminent  bridge  expert, 
with  a  view  to  engaging  him  to  inves- 
tigate the  project  from  an  engineering 
point  of  view,  but  up  to  tho  pre.sent,  so 
far  as  Is  known,  hu  has  been  unable  to 
do  so.  The  assumption  is  that  as  soon 
Hs  Mr.  Waddell  can  be  communicated 
with  he  will  be  delegated  to  tlie  task,  as 
he  is  ready  to  undertake  it.  If  this 
proves  to  be  the  case,  and  there  is  no 
reason  to  .suppose  it  will  not  be,  the 
efforts  of  the  delegation  which-  went  to 
Ottawa  will   be   completely  successful. 

There  Will,  however,  remain  other 
thing!"  to  bo  done  In  respect  to  this 
work,  and  the  committee  will  continue 
Iti   actlvlUes. 


rural  population  of  the  five  easttim'inio- 
vlnces  decreased  38,826,  and  the  urban 
population  Increased  776,846.  which  is 
not  Just  the  way  things  ought  to  be. 
In  the  four  western  provinces  the^  rural 
.population  increased  610,501  and  the 
urban  population  BOO.SIS.  This  is  bet- 
ter, but  even  in  the-West  the  towns  are 
growing  too  rapidly  in  proportion  to  the 
rural  population. 

Mr.  H.  Va;  I^KMTiedltli,  manager  of  the 
Bank  of  at*«bl»iwb  in  -an  interview  pub- 
llshed  In  "Canada,"  discusses  rates  on 
municipal  loans.  He  expresses  the  opin- 
ion that  tlie  municipalities  will  have, to 
pay  more  than  they  have  been  paying, 
not  because  municipal  sectiritics  are  not 
aa  good  as  ever,  but  because  the  price 
Of  money   has  advanced.     He  also   says 


supply  by  retaining  the  order  of  a 
lady  who  was  going  to  the  old  coun- 
try. The  prices  oaked  for  ihit  ordinary 
commodities  and  necessaries  of  life  In 
Victoria  is  food  for  thought,  and  It  Is 
the  olil  saying  of  "bringing  coal  to 
Newcastle"  repeating  Itself  in  our 
midst.  : 

With  all,  the  great  supply  of  fruit 
In  the  province  at  the  present  time.  ^'^ 
are  toiJay  in  Victoria  importing  largo 
quantities  of  same  from  .  eteross  the 
line,  though  in  Calgary  and  othier 
points  fritlt  from  British  Columbia 
cannot  And  a  market  and  has  rotted 
and  become  a  dead  loss.  Can  any  man 
stop  to  reason  tills  out  without  finding 
hlmsplf  perplexed  and  absolutely  In  a 
chaotic  condition  to  account  for  sarne? 
It  is  not  right  and  there  is  not  a  man 
or  woman  in  Briti.ih  Columbia  today 
who  but  fully  endorses  the  statement 
that  something  should  he  done  to  rem- 
edy the  present  day  evil  in  the  high 
that     the    actual     municipal     borrowings       cost    of    llvin^^     not     the    cost    of    high 


hoped  they  will  not  "hide  their  light 
under  a  bushel,"  Though  perhaps  they 
s,r«  not  desirous  of  be<:oining  i>t|blloly 
ostentatious,  yet  I  urge  tho,»n  *  td  iSv* 
the  benefit  of  their  fxpertanco  in  ex- 
pressing an  opinion  regarding  the  jinJ", 
f«rtant  subject  of  colonising  and 
settling  this  jprovlnce  wljh  the  practi- 
cal farmer,  who  with  a  small  holding 
can  imake  a  good  comfortable  living 
and  be  satisfied  with  his  lot. 

There  is  a  time  in  the  tide  of  this 
province's  affairs  when  the  unfortunate 
greedy  disposition  that  prevails  for 
selling  the  land  either  as  subdivisions 
or  mythical  BH  Dorados— at  present  at 
prices  ridiculous  and  ■  absurd — will 
cease.  The  laws  of  political  economy 
will  step  in  and  I  know  will  always  be 
found  a  benefit  for  the  right  man  In 
the  right  place.  The  Wheel  of  Fortune 
Will  not  revolve  In  such  an  extrava- 
gant manner  as  It  does  at  the  .present 
In  regard  to  the  sale  of  land  at"  prices 
that  prevent  the  most  sclentlflc  farmr'^ 
adopting  the  most  Intense  form  o. 
farming,  from   making  a  living. 

These  statements  are  made  by  ,mo, 
as  a  result  of  careful  Investigation, 
and  while  1  am  quite  jirepared  t<>  1^^ 
the  man  of  ■.«'>"«■■>-  pay  for  land  that  he 
Is  buying  «i  dence   site,    yet  I    do 

not  think  we  .^nould  be  informed  at  the 
present  time  by  the  moneyed  man  that 
land  for  farming  should  be  bought  at 
prices  ranging  around  *1,P00  per  aero 
and    expect    it   to   be    remunerative.

Some  lOngllsh  contemporaries  are  de- 
precating what  they  call  the  disposition 
of  wage-earners  in  Canada  to  speculate 
in  real  estate.  It  Is  very  easy  for  any 
one  several  thousand  miles  away  to  lay 
down  general  rules  for  a  community. 
What  is  called  "speculation  of  wage- 
earners,"  is  very  often  only  tho  legiti- 
mate effort  of  such  persons  to  get 
themselves  liomes,  or  to  put  their  sav- 
ings Into  real  estate.  As  a  general 
proposition  the  average  Canadian  wage- 
earner  knows  what  he  Is  about  when  he 
buys  a  pleee  of  land.

It  ought  not  be  difficult  for  any  one 
to  dlscovnr  a  valid  reason  for  Increasing 
the  sale  price  of  Crown  lands.  The 
pricfe  has  been  raised  sr-veral  times  In 
the  history  of  British  Columbia.  We 
think  there  was  a  time  a  good  many 
years  ago,  when  some  land  sold  for  25 
cents  an  acre.  I'-or  a  long  time,  it  cotild 
be  bought  for  a  •dollftr  an  acre.  Then 
the  price  was  $1.00,  t2.50  and  |5.00, 
according  to  quality.  Then  the  $1.00 
price  was  abolished  and  lastly,  the  $2.60 
land  was  doubled  in  price  and  ho  was 
the  16.00  land.  We  would  suppose  that 
oven  an  opponent  of  the  Rovernment 
would  not  object  to  these  advances  in 
prices  as  the  land  itself  becomes  more 
valifable.

I  do  not  for  a  moment  attempt  to

who  is  ns  keen  as  tlie  mo.st  influential

my  opinion  publicly,  as  by  so  doing 
it  is  brought  under  the  notice  of  many 
to   whom    I  «im    i^ersonally   not  known. 

The  Inhabitants  of  Vancouver  Inland 
will  shortly  be  afforded  an  opportunity 
to  express  their  views  on  tho  subject 
of  agricultural  conditions,  and  If  the 
Board  of  Trade,  the  Development

will  be  propounded  by  the  gorernment 
with  n  view  ""to  elicoiirii.'^^lng  the  men 
of  small  means  hut  of  Irtrge  muscle  to

the  cose  in  1911.  the  provlnep  should  be

I»roperty  Held  in  Trus' 
Sir,— I  see  bur  old  friend,  the  Dr.,  iR 
still  keeping  an  eye  on  Beacon  Hill 
jvark:  long  may  he  live  to  do  so. 
Would  you  be  kind  enough  .to  assisl 
nifi  with  a  tannic  that  another  park  has 
got  Into.  Some  years  ago  the  late  Mr. 
Koderlck  Finlayson  informed  me  of 
how  certain  lands  over  in  James  Bay 
had  been  left  in  trust  to  he  sold  nX 
•«ome  future  day  for  the  purpose  of 
purchasing  other  lands  for  park  r>'i"- 
pose.s.  A  few  years  ago  the  govern- 
nient  passed  an  act  of  parlliiment 
authori'/.ing  the  .sale  of  llu'  .said  land 
and  removing  the  trust  from  the  same: 
tho  net  stntes  ttuit  the  money  received 
from  the  sale  of  the  said  land  can  only 
•tic  used  for  the  purchase  and  improve- 
ment of  other  lands  for  park  purposes, 
but  it  says  nothing  of  being  held  in 
trust.  The  late  Mr.  Tatlow  lent  ii 
letter  to  the  city  council  which  '.s  now 
In  the  iiosKcs.slon  of  Mr.  Northeott. 
whlr'h  lUntes  tlmt  the  money  received 
from  the  sale  from  the  -•laid  land 
could  only  be  used  lu  the  purch.t.se  of 
certain  lands  from  the  Finlayson 
estate,  which  is  now  known  as  North 
Ward    park. 

The  rlty,  in  it-"  nnnual  reports,  puts 
down  this  land  ns  n  saleable  asset.  1 
Interviewed  Mr.  Raymur,  tellinr  him  I 
thought  this  was  wronp,  that  this  land 
should  be  the  same  as  Beacon  Hill, 
that  this  was  trust  property,  he  denied 
il.  I  then  went  with  Mr.  Northeott. 
and  wc  took  the  act,  likewise  Mr 
Tatlow'n  letter,  and  laid  the  case  be- 
fore Mr.  McDiarmld.  Mr.  McDnrmM 
elalmed  that  he  could  only  li\terprel  (t 
from  the  act,  nnd  not  froni  Mr.  ThI-

Defence  BUi  Passes  Vnohallenged 

IXiNDON,  Oct  17. — The  Wellington 
correspondent  of  The  Times  says  that 
the  New  Ziealnnd  Defoncc  Bill  practi- 
cally became  law  yesterday,  having 
passed  the  committee  stage  unaltered. 
Sir  John  Ward  appealed  for  the  re- 
moval of  the  clause  providing  for  the 
imprisonment  of  defaulters,  but  the 
minister  of  defence,  w.hlle  h^plnf  tW,. 
the  power  would,,  nevpr  be  .^ejtt?tpi«;d., 
said  that  retention  was  necessary  to 
meet  extreme  eases.  The  principle  of 
compulsory  ssrvice  went  nn^allenssd. 


Whitby  on  screen  5,  which  Is  not  quite 
so  effective.  No.  17".  "Indian  Sum- 
mer." by  Mr.  A.  H.  Parker,  Is  a  .small 
sketch  that  might  be  overlooked,  hut 
la  one  of  the  i)est  bits  of  work  on  this 
screen.  No.  177,  ".\utumn  Uplands," 
l>j-  Miss  J.  Crease,  is  also,  good,  hut  not 
nulte  equal  to  some  of  her  other  work. 
No.  1R1,  "MesBtehle  Mountain"  is  an- 
other of  Mrs.  Shnllcross's  charming 
studies. 

On  the  corner  screen  where  mono- 
chromes nnd  architectural  drawlng.s 
are  displayed,  the  best  work  Is  by  Miss 
Kate  Smith,  whose  cnpltal  oil  studies 
of  flgures  nnd  animals  were  noticed  on 
••creens  1  and  2,  .She  shows  two 
crayon  sliirtlcs,  No.  202.  n  "Horses

Life";  both  good  sound  work.  No.  215 
Is  a  careful  p<^n  drawing  by  Mr.  A. 
McGregor,  "On  the  Gorge."  On  tho 
last  screen  Is  a  bold  effective  water

ing  agents  nnd  appointing  commissions 
to  study  the  situation  as  It  affects 
them. 

After  such  a  list  of  fore'^gn  activities, 
it  is  somewhat  disappointing  to  revlow 
what  little  has  been  done  by  Canada  to 
prepare  for  the  opening  of  the  oanal. 
We  are  told  by  Mr.  Barrett  that  Can- 
ada will  run  two  new  direct  lines,  re- 
si)ectlvely,  from  Vancouver  and  Mont- 
real to  the  corresponding  coasts  of 
Latin  America.  It  has  been  sUted  also 
that  a  new  line  of  steamers  from  Can- 
ada's Atlantic  to  Pacific  coast  will  be 
inauguriited.  The  Department  of  Trade 
and  Commerce  at  Ottawa,  we  under- 
stand, lias  asked  Its  trade  commission- 
ers in  various  countries  to  report  on  the 
probable  effects  on  Canadian  trade,  of 
the   opening   of  the  canal. 

Aside  from  belated  and  somewhat 
vague  proposals  to  Increase  the  oom- 
merclal  strength  of  our  Pacific  coast, 
little  else  is  being  done  by  the  Domi- 
nion to  meet  new  conditions  The  rail- 
ways arc  h-BMnlnv  thair  own  ootmsel.  but 
may  be  expected  to  be  ready  for  the 
Panama  canal  when  that  waterway  Is 
ready  for  them.  The  same  argunMnt, 
We  fear,  cannot  ba  appllM  I*  VW  99M- 
flo  ports.

Mr.  G.  H.  Barnard,  M.  P./  e»JWffp»ad 
his  determination  to  tar^ii^::i%ti't'iliVth 
Ject  In  every  way  pasaible.  He  doubted. 
If  actual  surveys  b^v.e.tp  be  m<tde,  that 
they  could  be  aitai06l^^mi»  year,  but 
no  time  should  be  'lost  next  year  In'

Mr.  H.  B.  Thomson,  holitjvcd  the  com- 
mltloe  could  congratulate  Itself  on  the 
work,  already  done  and  he  had  every 
conlltlencc  that  Premier  Borden  and  Ills 
enllcag'Ues  would  make  every  effort  to 
further  the  project  as  they  had  prom- 
i.sed.  Mr.  Waddell,  was  one  of  the  best 
of  engineers,  would  be  a  valuable  per- 
son to  make  tTie  surveys  and  there  was 
no  doubt  but  thnt  when  he  had  gone 
over  the  ground  lie  will  find  that  the 
first  estimates  of  coat  were  too  liigh. 

Mr.  Behnsen  was  also  convinced  that 
the  committee  can  rely  upon  the  keen 
Intercut  of  the  federal  ministers  who 
woul<l  make  themselves  thorouglily  con- 
versant with  tho  growing  needs  of  Van- 
couver   Island. 

Alderman  Cuthbert  stated  thit  Hon.

necessary  to  entitle  persons  to  a  vote. 
"It  would  appear  from  the  dlsclo.s-

workers,  In  their  enlliuslnxrn,  also  very 
kindly  remo\ert  (.ertaln  other  oliHtacles

can friends,  thereby  BwelUng  tlielr  ma-

see  If  these  things  can  stand  the  light 
of  day.  At  least,  mention  of  It  will  l>e 
made  wlien  parliament  op-ns,  and  we 
hope  that  the  Dominion  government 
may  also  look  into  the  n\alter,  and  thut

would    have    it    appear,    Mr.    WyUe   cited 

the    fact    that   atCumberlHnd,   nortli   of

Att  Anrniuetlt  destroyed 

"Reclprdcity  la  not  as  strong  now  In 
Saskatchewan  as  «t  t^M  last  dominion 
election,"  Mr.  Wylla  said.  "One  of  the 
reasons  probably  Is  that  the  farmers 
have  been  getting  better  prices  recently 
at  Winnipeg  than^at  Minneapolis,  which 
seems  to  destroy  a  very  vital  Liberal 
argument." 

Mr.  Wylle  made  the  prediction  that 
Premier  Borden's  forthcoming  announce- 
ment on  the  much  discussed  naval  pro- 
gramme would  prove  satisfactory  to 
every   loyal   Canadian. 

As  to  crops,  Mr.  Wylle  declared  that 
the  harvest  this  season  In  Saskatche- 
wan   has    been   entirely   satisfactory. 

"It  has  been  one  of  the  best  crops  in 
ths  history  of  the  pfevlnte,  and  we  have 


Finch  &  Finch,  Ladies'  Outfitters

nothing  to  complain  ^f  in  the  matter  of 
prosperity."

and  Thur.sday  In  order  that  the  members 
might  benc-rit  from  a  series  of  lectures 
on  drefsmakid.i,-.  Mrs.  Stacey,  the  de- 
mon.«!trator,  carefully  explained  the  use 
of  patterns,  their  adaptlbllity  to  vari- 
ous figures,  the  proper  mode  of  cutting 
out,  basting  and  Joining  logether  for 
skirts,  coats  and  one-pleco  dresses.  Plf- 
flcultles  .which  the  home  dresmaker  en- 
I'ounters  were  explained,  and  those  who 
attended  were  much  pleased  -with  Mrs. 
.Stucoy's  clever,  practical  work.  There 
were  twenty  present,  and  it  Is  regre|;ted 
that  more  did  not  avail  themselves  of 
this  opportunity  to  learn  this  homely 
science  from  one  who  knows.  launch 
was  served  In  the  hall  by  the  refresh- 
ment committee,  after  which  Mrs.  llan- 
Ington  gave  a  short  but  interesting  talk 
on  the  work  being  done  by  the  different 
Institutes  she  had  visited.  She  congrat- 
ulated the  members  on  the  way  the 
women's  Institutes  endeavored  to  meet 
fhe  pressing  needs  of  their  several  com- 
n-.unllles.  Mrs.  Hanington  was  to  have 
lectured  In  the  evening  on  Canadian 
l).ntriotlsm,  btil  a.i  few  of  Diosc  prrsent 
(ould  attend  an  evening  seaslon,  it  litis

six  new  members  were  eU'cted  wltli

Crimea.  A  satisfactory  account  of  the 
convalescence  of  the  pre.sldent.  Major 
Wilson  and  al.so  that  of  Captain  Curtds

pressed his  willingness  to  attend  and  to 
speak  on  the  war  of  1812.  Dr.  Bapty 
added  that  this  was  a  peculiarly  happy 
choice  as  Dr.  Toung  had,  he  believed, 
been  brought  up  In  Quebec  close  to  the 
scenes  of  several  of  the  battles  fought

Tl»»t  Qiovannt  t>taOhettl,  a  workmeiri 
engaged  on  rook  excavation  '  on  tlio

cidentally killed  by  the  explosion  of  a 
charge  of  dynamite  ||i»  Wftck  powder 
in  a  cut  near  the  W^StOn  House  on 
Tuesday  t||fn»Ulf«  was  the  verdict  of  the 
coroner's  Ju»y  which  yesterday  after- 
noon Investigated  the  circumstatices  of 
the  case. 

In  returning  Its  verdict,  the  Jury  in- 
dicated, without  formally  Incorporating 
ita  opinion  In  Us  verdict,  that  It  is  about 
tlNt^^Mme  action  Is  taken  towards  pre- 
WUUiil#a.  recurrence  of  acldents  which 
are  due  to  extreme  catelfssness  on  the 
part  of  men  engaged  in  using  dynatnlte 

■for  rock  blasting  puiT(>Qses.  The  cvl- 
donce  showed  that  the  hole  in  which 
the  mixed  charge  was  placied  had  been 
"sprung"  but  two  hours  before,  and 
therefore  could  not  possibly  ba\-e  cooljied 
off  fluficiently  to  permit  black  pOwdiir 
t«>  be  safely  deposited  therein. 

Two  Of  deceased's  fellow     workmen," 
Pisnnti    SabattHQ  and   O.   Matteo,    both 
experienced  xmUkumiU  while  knowing  of 
this,  yet  placed  Hhe  five  sticks  of  dyna- 
tntte^atong    with    a    consldeiable    quan- 

;tl|[y.«<  black  powder  in  the  hole,  and  !t

by  tlie  "springing"  of  the  hole  exploded

Oiachcttr%*|^^orking  in  a  rock  cut  be- 
neath and  was'  buried  by  rocks  and  dirt 
when  the-charge  exploded,  heavy  pieces 
of  rock  striking  him  down.

cJared  that  It  was  absolutely  unsttfrii^

aitests  on Occident  victims  killcfl  in  sim- 
ilar manner,  and  had  invariably  found 
that  Italians,  when  holding  contracts 
for  such  work,  seldom  take  sufficient 
time,  before  laying  the  iniiin  charge,  to 
allow  t>>e  holf«,||frjw»l|^  off. 

In  _  the'  ca8e.:AyiM|iMlC'^-'  working  for 
wages  for  anftfter  diiWtractor,  they  do 
not  object  to  taking  all  the  time  neces- 
sary. In  the  present  case  Sabatino  and 
Matteo,  who  were  holders  of  a  stib-con- 
tract.  were  apparently  anxious  to  rush 
work  and  take  a  chance  on  accidents. 
The  amount  of  carclesness  shown  on 
such  contracts  had  become  a  scandal. 
The  Jury  was  composed  of  Messrs. 
Thomas  McKee,  foreman;  Guy  W. 
Walker,  .lohn  McPherHon,  Leonard

TW'.^Bip^ljgB.l'ISagle  ^.refers'  to  at  «s 
an  abai|M!?i;,:^|g  controversy.  It  says 
that  Mr:  TeiiiiHe,;  as  an  alien,  pays 
taxes,  and  in  return  Is  entitled  to  edu- 
cation for  his  children.  That  this  un- 
ciuestloned  right  can  be  made  to  de- 
pend on  the  cliild's  forced  swearing 
of  allegiance,  to  a  country  other  than 
the  one  his  father  owes  allegiance  to 
Is  pure  imagination  on  the  part  of  the 
school  board.  The  Eagle  says  tliat 
forced  oaths  of  allegiance  may  be  .-tU 
right  in  Russia,  but  tlicy  are  out  of 
place  In  a  republic.  ]f  Mr.  Temple 
were  not  proud  of  his  Britisli  citizen- 
.•ihip  there  would  he  something  wrong 
with  him.  It  concludes  by  remarking 
that  If  anything  should  convince  him 
that  he  should  not  change  his  alleg- 
iance It  would  he  the  mcthod.s  of  the 
Cedar  Grove  .School  board.  The  Boston 
Globe  say,s  the  question  should  he  net- 
tled by  supposing  the  case  of  an  Ameri- 
can lad  asked  to  swear  allegiance  to 
the  British  flaR  because  he  was  attend- 
ing an  Kngllsh  school.  With  leading 
American  newspapers  taking  this  at- 
titude Canadians  need  not  Worry  them- 
selves over  it.  but  can  depend  upon  the 
good  sense  of  the  American  people 
seeing  no  Injustice  Is  done  lo  Mr, 
Temple  and  his  son. 


but  knew  that  they  would  be  ejected. 
What  did  they  do?  Men,  In  the  same 
case,  would  liavc  gone  In  force  suffl- 
clent  to  have  carried  the  meeting,  or 
thpy  would  have  kept  away.  Not  so  the 
women. 

They  went.  Few  Jn  number  they 
went.  But  they;  weht,  not  armed,  but 
armored.  lOacti  woman  was  literally  en- 
cased in  a  spiked  coat  of  mall.  It  was 
a  device  too  simple  and  ingenious  for  a 
man  to  think  of.  Eadi  woman  wore  a 
fiullted  and  padded  coat  In  which  thou- 
sands of  pins  were  concealed  with  their 
points  outward.  There  was  nothing  in 
the  appearance  of  the  dress  of  these 
women  to  betray  the  existence  of  these 
spikes,  but  when  an>body  seized  or 
crowded  against  one  of  these  women, 
the  result  was  physically  painful  and 
morally    shocking. 

That  these  weaker  vessels  should 
thus  employ  cunning  against  force,  that 
leading  and  Influential  citizens  should 
get  their  hands  pierced  by  a.  hundred 
l)in8  When  mildly  standing  forward  in 
.(t^e  Interests  of  law  and  order,  as  their 
nthers  had  done  before  them,  Is,  to 
aay  the  least  of  It,  upaettlng.  Imagine 
a  Welsh  Justice  of ,  the  peace,  a  man  of 
property  ah^  faroll^r^  ai^ft^ist.  wbqm  no 
dog  had  ever  barked,,  shevinf  .hi*  dis- 
tinguished hands  against  one  of  U>ese 
living  pin  cushions:!,, 

The  worst  Is  to  be, feared.  1ifom»n. 
the  Kneniy  has  resources  men  wlpirnot 
of.  It  might  be  well  to  discuss  terms.

riower  Culture 

The  people  of  Tertland  are  not  satis- 
fied to  be  considered  the  most  success- 
ful rose  growers  of  the  northwest.  They 
v.ant  to  be  distinguished  as  cultivators 
of  the  sweet  pea.  The  newspaper  edit- 
ors are  praising  the  pretty  and  fragrant 
flower  and  urging  all  gardeners  to  make 
a  speciality   of  Us   culture... 

In  Victoria  the  sweet' pea  coihea:  to 
Krcat  perfection.  Neither  Portland  nor 
any  other  city  could  excel  us  In  its  cul- 
tivation If  Ave  aided  nature  buf  a  little. 
As  for  roses,  Victoria  could  plant  and 
train  a  great  many  more  than  she  does. 
This  Is  the  time  of  year,  is  it  not.  to 
prepare  for  next  summer's  bloom.  Most 
of  u.s  have  generous  neighbors  who  are 
willing  to  share  their  treasures  with  Us, 
as  we  are  eager  to  do  ourselves  with 
those  who  have  room  for  what  wo  can 
spare,  a  few  choice  plants  can  be  add- 
f<\   as  we  can  afford  it. 

It  will  not  take  long  till  the  smallest 
garden  Is  a  delight,  not  only  to  the 
owner,  but  to  every  one  who  passes  if 
but  a  little  time  and  labor  are  devoted 
t.)  its  culUvation.  There  arc  not  many 
things  that  the  avoraire  citizen  can  do 
that  will  confer  a  more  general  benefit 
than  the  growing  of  flowers.  Not  only 
sweet  peas  and  roses,  but  chrysanthe- 
mums and  many  baautles  of  the  late 
summer  season  will  amply  repay  tlie 
rare  bestowed  upon  them.  There  Is  ho 
reason  why  Victoria  sliould  not  bacomt; 
a  Gucoe.s.sfiii  rival  of  the  beautiful  Ort- 
Kon  city. 


A    Man's   Views 

The  Toronto  Star,  In  an  article  which 
contains  some  food  for  refkctlon, 
writes  in  a  sarca.stic  view  under  the 
caption  of  "Wuinan,  the  liln.'my,"  of 
what  is  Incorrectly  called  the  woman's 
movcmpnt  There  are  women  In  Can- 
aiia  who  welcome  the  agitators  from 
Oriat  Britain  but  there  arc  imt  lnaIl^•. 
The  spread  of  their  propaganda  will  not 
be  welcomed  by  the  Canadian  women 
wlio  hnve  up  to  the  present  looked  upon 
themselves  as  the  helpmates  of  their 
husbands  and  the  comrades  of  their 
brothers.  But  we  will  let  The  Star 
t<'ach    Its   own    lesson    In   its   own    way: 

Men  know  very  little  about  women 
as  yet.  So  far.  men  have  studied  wo- 
nun  only  as  mother.*,  wives,  sisters,  and 
how-d'ye-do's  and  It  is  to  be  feared  that 
the  knowledge  so  acquired  Is  supcrflclal. 
11  certainly  seems  so. 

Man  is  now  confronted  hy  Woman, 
the  Enemy.  Or,  at  least.  In  some  places 
this  most  unnatural  of  all  wars  has 
been    declared. 

If  this  strife  beconries  general.  It 
will,  we  fear,  make  the  wars  of  the 
Boses  and  the  Civil  war  In .  the  United 
States  seem   tame   in    comparison. 

Kipling,  nearer  the  present  scene  of 
disturbance  than  we  are,  declares  that 
the  female  of  the  species  Is  more  deadly 
than  the  male.  Dickens,  In  his  story 
of  the  French  Revolution,  portrayed  for 
us  an  Implacable  woman  who  wove  into 
b«r  knitting  death  warrants  for  those 
w1»om  men  of  the  most  ferocious  chSr- 
aeter  would  have  ftparnd.  And  now 
comes  news  from  'Wales. 

Mr.  Isloyd  Qsoitge  held  a  meeting  In

'The  <^nadlani^rm,.hfA,«}v  article  on 
"Marketing  :  British  CottimtJlan  Fruit 
Crop,"  the  pith  of  which  Is  that  better 
prices  In  the  prairie  markets  will  not 
be  obtainable  until  large  co-operative 
packing  and  shipping  organizations  aro 
formed  at  each  large  shippipK  centre 
and  all  the  fruit  shipped  through  them. 
These  organisations  should  also  have

Tlie  Fanner's  Advocate  devotes  con- 
siderable space  'to  an  accourit  f>f  the 
government  farm  kept  in  connection 
with  the  hospital  for  the  in.=ane  at 
IjOtidon,  Ontario.  Dr.  Vf.  J.  Robinson, 
the  manager,  has  built  up  a  magnifi- 
cent herd  of  milking  cows  averaging 
8+9.T  pounds  of  milk  for  the  fifty  ani- 
mals kept.  In  Other  departments  beef 
cattle  are  studied,  horticulture,  poultry 
and  reforestation  all  receive  attention 
and  are  made  to  produce  commercial 
profits  under  the  most  scientific  and 
modern  methods  o'  culture. 


The    Pearl    Oyster 

In  the  Interesting  paper  which  Dr, 
H.  Lyster  Jameson  read  at  a  session 
of  the  British  Association  on  pearl 
producing  industries  he  stated  that  th.^ 
Japanese  pearl  oyster  Industry  was  the 
only  instance  known  to  him  of  the 
ivpulication  of  biological  knowledge  and 
theory  to  the  Improvement  of  the  In- 
dustry, A  few  years  ago  the  l.'nitcd 
States  government  appointed  a  body 
of  experts  to  Investigate  this  subject. 
The  results  of  their  work  are  con- 
tained in  an  elaborate  report  which 
has  Just  been  presented  to  the  'UnUed 
.States    bureau    of    fisheries,. 

The  experts  carried  out  eXtMnslV* 
experiments  to  test  'the  possibilities  of 
of  artificially  proipogatlng  fresh  water 
mussel.'".  T)ils  work  wno  nndertoken 
becausi'  of  the  threatened  extinction  of 
the  commeicial  species,  whose  shfUs 
have  been  taken  in  enormous  nuantltles 
in  recent  yoius.  both  for  the  manufac- 
ture of  pearl  buttons  and  for  the  pearls 
which  tlie.v  freciucntly  foutaln.  Yenr» 
have  been  spent  in  studying  the  breed- 
ing habits  .i;\il  seiisoiui  of  the  musels, 
the  biological  and  physical  conditions 
under  which  they  live,  and  many  other 
essential  matters.  The  results  of  these 
'experiments  are  not  yet  comolete,  but 
the  experts  ftate  that  thev  have  pro 
cccded  far  enough  to  ni.iko  It  clear  that 
the  ultlinatu  end  of  the  investigation  in 
.assured. 

Oyster  culture  after  ail  Is  no  novelty, 
having  been  practised  by  th*-  Uoninn' 
Dr.  .Tameson  referred  to  the  dlsantrous 
fiiU'ire  of  the  company  promoted  hy 
Sir  West  nidgeway,  In  1906,  to  exploit 
the  Ceylon  pearl  banks.  Thin  unfor- 
tuniile  result  wa.s  due  partly  to  tiic 
absence  of  any  attempt  scientifically 
to  develop  the  banks,  and  the  grounds 
which  were  leased  to  the  compnruv  by 
the  colonial  office  are  now  being  taker, 
back.

get  to  the  field  before  7.30  o'clock  In 
the  evening. 

"Eaclf  cf  the  ten  first  grade  clubs 
controls  a  playing  field,  and  often  a 
large  hall  with  an  earthen  floor  cov- 
ered with  tanbark  on  which  to  handle 
the  ball  and  study  team   work.' 

"The  team  is  directed  iii  its  manoe- 
uvres by  tho  captain,  but  (please  note) 
any  suggestion  as  to  the  betterment 
of  the  side  is  open  to  free  discussion. 
Worthy  suggestions  are  considered 
and  tried  out  right  away.  It  is  then 
mutually  settled.  If  the  new  tactics — 
stunts,  you  call  them— aro  adopted, 
they  are  further  tried  out  during  the 
game  on  the  following  Saturday  aftcr- 
nooJHj-\-'.i*''f-jj'  .  _ 

"A^tr"""fll'rther  wetiknesaea  noticed 
during  the  games  from  time  to  time 
are  thrashed  out,  and.  If  possible, 
rectified. 

"Every  reasonable  means  is  taken, 
Chiefly  with  the  aid  of  a  blackboard 
and  chalk,  to  create  a  general  under- 
standing among  tho  players.  This 
tends  toward  better  combination  and 
uniformity,  thereby  strengthening  the 
Bide. 

"Cnre  la  taken  to  make  practice 
night  as  cheerful  and  pleasant  as  pos- 
sible. The  nights,  other  than  when 
the  irtoon, shines  brightly,  aro  too  dark 
to  practice  kicking  and  fielding,  so  the 
members  mako  the  most  of  running 
around  the  field.  At  the  commence- 
ment of  the  season  they  might  run 
four  or  five  miles  slowly;  later  the 
pace  is  increased  and  tho  distance  de- 
creased; still  later  In  thu  season,  sharp 
sprinting  work   should  be  carried  out. 

"Bear  in  mind  that  no  coaches  are 
employed — other  than  when  some  en- 
thusiastic lover  of  tho  game  .offers  his 
services  gratis,  chiefly  to  school  teams. 
Everything  is  peacefully  settled  by  the 
players  thcm.sclvcs.  However,  to  select 
the  teams  from  week  to  week,  three 
men  aro  elected  annually  by  club 
inenibor.<<,  inxari.-ilily  inchullng  tlio 
CHptaln. 

"When  the  first  teams  are  in  want 
of  a  player,  they  draw  on  the  seconds, 
and  so  on   right   down   to  the  schools. 

"Again,  we  strongly  ob.iect  to  having 
Ins-tructlon.s  shouted  at  us  from  other 
than  tho  captain  during  the  progress 
of  a  game. 

"It  a  man  Is  fully  primed  up  with 
what  he  is  expected  to  do  before  go- 
ing on  the  field,  and  he  falls  to  carry 
his  part  through,  he  \s  not  chosen 
again  to  play;  he  drops  back  to  the 
lower  grade  until  his  weakness  Is 
overcome.  .\U  the  rooting  or  shouting 
poaaiblo   can    not    improve    matters."

From  what  hflCs  been  aeen  of  thj 
work  of  the  first  division  teams  ao  far 
the  Wests  and  Thlatles  appear  to  be 
th  best  bets,  with  the  Sons  of  England 
pressing  hard  for  that  honor.  In  tha 
second  division  the  James  Bays,  Wests 
and  Wards  are  the  most  likely  looking

BROWN  EXPECTED  TO 

WIN  SIDNEY  MARATHON 


Today  four  James  Bay  boxers  go  over 
to  Vancouver  to  compete  tonight  in  an 
intercity  tournament  at  tlio  new  home 
of  the  Vancouver  Athletic  Club.  They 
are  Albert  Gerard,  115  lbs.;  Jack  Clem- 
ents, 125  lbs.:  .Scotty  McKay,  135  lbs., 
and  Chris  Geor/jes,  15S  lbs. 

Gerard  is  a  clever  little  fellow,  but  he 
has  his  work  cut  out  for  him  tonlg-ht. 
He  Is  to  be  pitted  against  Bert  Hughes, 
whom  Vancouver  patrons  of  the  sport 
believe  to  bo  tho  best  bantam  on  the 
Pacific  Coast  They  do  not  except  Al 
Davies,  the  local  bantam,  who  now 
holds  the  coast  championship,  hut  If 
Gerard  should  happen  to  win  bis  bout 
tonight  they  would  be  forced  into  the 
conclusion  that  Hughes  is  no  match  lor 
Davies.  Davies  outpointed  Gerard  eas- 
ily at  the  last  local  tournament. 

Scotty  McKay  is  a  likely  point  winner 
tonlKht.  In  fact.  It  Is  practically  certain 
that  "Scotty"  will  beat  his  opponent, 
Jack  .Smith.  He  met  Smith  at  the  la.st 
tournament  here  and  knocked  him  out 
in  about  two  minutes.  Jack  Clements, 
of  the  James  Bay  Club,  is  Koing  up 
against  a  namesake  of  his,  Stanley 
Clements,  of  the  V.  A.  C,  and  Chris 
Georges  will  probably  enter  the  rinjf 
ajjaln.st  OH   Martin. 

Gil  Martin  Is  the  welterwelgrht  nmn- 
tfur  champion  of  Canada,  and  la  cer- 
tainly more  than  Georges  can  liaudlc, 
but  Georges  intends  to  make  the  cham- 
pion extend  himself.  There  was  some 
talk  In  Vancouver  papers  of  Mat  Cott, 
Victoria's  most  promising  middleweight. 
Koing  over  to  meet  Martin,  but  Cott  will 
not  go.

A  movement  is  on  foot  to  have  an 
Intermediate  Intercity  Rugby  series 
started  on  lines  similar  to  the  Mc- 
Kechnle  Cup  series  for  the  senior 
teams.  The  intermediate  clubs  of  the 
Vancouver  Rugby  Union  have  come  to 
the  conclusion  that  it  is  time  that  a 
provincial  championship  for  their  di- 
vision was  organized,  and  ere  commu- 
nicating with  Victoria  In  this  connee- 
tlon. 

There  is  no  doubt  at  all  of  the  value 
a  series  of  such  a  kind  would  be  to 
Rujby  In  British  Columbia,  but  there 
la  an  ob*tac"e  in  the  way  of  its  forma- 
tion; there  are  no  "ao-called"  Inter- 
mediate  players   In    Victoria. 

Unless  Vancouver  Rugby  men  mer 
willing  to  allow  some  of  the  weaker 
players  in  the  Barnard  Cup  league, 
which  is  •!  senior  organisation,  to  play 
In  these  piatchea  there  does  not  aeem 
to  be  an/  chance  that  t)\«  proposed

Victoria  Professional  Soccer 
Team  to  Play  Nanaimo  for 
Trophy  at  Close  of  Island 
League^  Season 


The  Victoria  professional  soccer 
team  will  make  an  effort  to  win  tho 
Nanaimo  Challenge  cup  this  season.  Tho 
secretary  of  the  local  club  made  this 
announcement  last  night.  The  match 
or  matches  will  likely  be  played  after 
the    close    of    the    Island    League    season. 

The  Challenge  cup  was  put  up  by  the 
citizona  of  Nanaimo  five  or  six  years 
ago.  and  was  proaentwl  to  tho  Nanaimo 
football  team.  The  Nanaimos  have 
only  been  called  on  to  defend  It  once 
against  Ladysmlth  about  four  years 
ago.  They  beat  Ladysmlth,  and  .•«inc<! 
then  have  been  l'>ft  In  undisturbed  pos- 
session of  the  trophy.  One  of  the  con- 
ditions on  which  the  cup  was  presctited 
Is  that  It  must  be  played  for  in 
Nanaimo. 

Victoria  Teanilfor  Saturday 
The  Victorias  are  putting  a  strong 
team  In  the  field  against  the  Nanaimo 
ITnltedsln  the  IsLahd  League  fixture  at 
the  Royal  Athletic  park  tomorrow.  Tho 
forward  line  has  been  strengthened  by 
the  return  of  Wllkle  and  Whlttakrr  to 
the  club,  and  according  to  the  local 
players.  If  the  miners  win  thin  Satur- 
day they  will  field  a  strongcf  aggrega- 
tion than  they  did  last  Sunday,  when 
they  beat  Victoria   2   to   1. 

The  game  tomorrow  will  start  at  3 
o'clock.  Mr.  J.  R.  Allen  has  been  se- 
lected to  referee.  The  Victoria  team 
follows:  Goal)  Doufean;  backs,  Newlunds 
and  Miller;  halves,  Thomas.  McAdam 
and  Wllaon:  forwards,  Wllkie,  AlU^n, 
Piekpring.  WhlttaUer  and  Mulr;  re- 
serves.   Josh    and    Conlln. 


have  made  at  tho  I^hiJadelphla  baseball 
park  at  the  last  series  played  there 
with  the  Xew  York  team;  an  accu.'sa- 
tion  alleged  to  have  been  made  that 
the  manager  o-f  the  St.  Louis  Club 
weakened  his  team  by  playing  substi- 
tutes .so  that  New  York  could  win, 
and  charges  made  by  AVilllam  Bren- 
nan,  an  umpire,  whose  I'airne.s.s  wis 
said  to  have  been  Impugned  by  Mr. 
l-'ogel.  • 

National  League  magnates,  it  Is 
said,  aro  going  to  have  a  thorough 
house-cleaning,  and  it  is  not  unlikely 
that  they  will  severely  punish,  both 
fogel  and  C.  W.  Murphy,  owner  of 
the   Chicago   Club. 

Just  what  they  can  do  to  Murphy 
they  do  not  know,  but  they  Intend  to 
call  him  to  account  for  his  action  in 
tho  anti-drinklng  and  Chanco  cases, 
and  to  bring  pre.ssuro  upon  those 
whom  they  bolievo  own  tho  club  to 
•closo  Murphy  up  or  close  him  out.  .Vt 
least  five  of  tha  owners,  it  is  said, 
will  vote  to  oust  Horace  Fogel  from 
the  league,  and.  If  the  pressure  they 
aro  talking  about  bringing  upon  the 
owners  of  the  Philadelphia  club  fails 
to  bring  the  desired  result,  they  may 
threaten  the  charter  rights  of  the 
Philadelphia  team  to  compel  tho  re- 
mova^  of  Fogel.

and  desiring  to  see  our  affairs  and  the 
affairs  of  Canada  prosper,  I  too  am  very 
naturally  opposed,  to  oponlns  the  gates  of 
trade  to  the  United  $tate«.  I  was  opposed 
to  reciprocity  at  the  last  etectloin  becau*e' 
I  thought  it  would  be  an  entering  wedge ' 
whereby  free  trade  would  be  extended  from 
natural  products,  a*  raised  by  the  farmttr, 
to  the  commodities  )>laoed  on  the  market 
I'y  the  ,manuractur«ir.  ;  Moreover,  reciprocity 
would  draw  Canada  nearer  to  tlio  United 
statei  and  '  farther  ajvay  from .  Great 
Hrltaln.  Canada  ought  to  be  very  loyal  to 
the  old  land. 

"I  believe  the  Dominion  ought  to  make  a 
very  generous  contribution  '  for  bnttleshlpo. 
I  do  not  think  Canada,.neQ(Ia^  a  separato 
navy,  very  iarKely  bocnuge.  In  my  opinion, 
•••iich  a  navy  wnul.i  h  ■  nt,?olete  before  It 
ooulrt  be  sufflolontly  jidv.incpd  to  be  of' real 
nervlce.  On  the  other  hand,  a  contribution

nature  of  making  a  fair  repaynient  to

Oomjulssion    May   Interfere 

It  Is  rumored  that  the  .N'atlonal  Com- 
mi,'»slon  will  pass  a  rule  prohlbltlnR  ball 
players  from  allowlns:  the  use  of  their 
names  over  newspaper  stories  because  of 
the  ilaii.ij^r  of  stirring  up  fllssenston. 
Chief  Meyers  lost  his  temi>er  when  be 
rpnd  a  story  by  McGraw,  blamlns  the 
Inrllnn  for  losing  the  first  game  by 
missing  a  foul  that  hit  tbe  screen.  He 
felt  better  when  he  found  his  managvr 
had  not  written  it.  "The  only  thing  I 
ever  got  for  allowing  the  use  of  my 
name  was  the  loss  of  a  good  player," 
said  Clark  Grimth.  "Sandow  Morte>? 
.hnnped  to  tlie  Giants  wl.en  I  was 
managing  the  "SA'hlte  Sox,  after  he  read

How  Wall  It  Pays 

Tfere's  a  .'<tciry  that  sliow.'i  how  well 
It  pny.'<  to  lie  a  player  on  a  champion- 
ship team.  A  Boston  paper  found  that 
It  had  but  five  exports  to  write  up  the 
world's'  series.  ,s!o  Heinle  Wagner  wa^i 
npproacl.ed.  "We'll  give  you  ^500  Just 
to  talk  to  our  sporting  edltor.s  after  the 
game,"  was  the  offer  to  Heinle.  "I'd 
be  ctittln.g  the  price."  a^Vawcrod  the  Red 
.Sox  shortstop.  "AVood  and  Speaker  are 
getting  $.=(,000  each  for  the  same  thing." 
"Their  stuff  will  be  sold  to  other  pa- 
pers, but  wo  haven't  time  to  sell  your

IVE  long  ye.ars  of 
suffering  from 
Kidney  Trouble 
— two  boxes  of 
GIK  PILLS— and 
it's  all  gone. 
That  has  been  i 
the  experience  of 
Mr.  Eu.gene  Ques- 
nel.  Chief  City 
Circulation  Agent 
of  La  Patrle,  of 
Montreal.  He  dP-

ingly: 

Montreal,  iClay  3,  1912. 

"I  have  been  suffering  from  Kidney 
Trouble  for  over  five  long  years.  I 
had  also  Rheumatism  in  all  ',my  bones 
and  muscles,  could  not  sleep  night.-*  and 
on  some  occasions  could  hardly  walk. 
I  had  been  treated  by  soitie  of  our  best 
Physicians  but  without  relief  and  I  lost 
over  fifteen  pounds.  One  day  I  met 
one  of  our  leading  hotelkeepers,  who 
had  been  cured  by  your  famous  GIN 
PILLS,  and  he  advised  me  to  try  them. 
So  1  bought  two  boxes  at  my  druggLst's 
and  before  I  had  used  one  box  I  felt  a 
big  change.  Before  I  finished  the  sec- 
ond  one   I   was   completely   cured. 

I  can  assure  you  I  can  hardly  believe 
It  for  if  I  had  only  known  what  I  know 
now  I  would  not  have  spent  over  Onp 
Hundred  Dollars  for  nothing  when  two 
boxes  of  GIN   PILLS  cured   me." 

EUGENE  QUESNEL. 

GIN  PILLS  are  gaining  a  world-wide 
reputation,  by  the  way  they  confjuer  the 
most  obstinate  cases  of  Rheumatism 
and   all    kinds   of   Kidney   Trouble.

paign In  Ulster,  which  is  quite  the  most 
_etaruing  Incident  in  ^mqdeyn  fipllMcs. ' 
Long  ago  It  was  remarked  tliat  the  only 
Invariable  quality  in  the  .attitude  of  a. 
">an  ^^  His  world  was  that  at  every 
roora'fltlSiaf  ')BSu\te-iciiil|''-,ije'"wa«'.  ^ound':

rndical  politicians,  who  olafm'  to  have ' 
0,  practical  acquaintance  with  affairs. 
might  profitably  take  to  heart  today. 
It  is  true  that  the  solemn  covenant  of 
Ulster,  the  text  of  which  was  publlshetl 
yesterday,  takes  us  back  to  the  earlier 
period  when  the  iron  warriors  who  sur- 
rounded Cromwell  subscribed,  with 
Rword  in  hand,  their  unshakeable  belief 
that  Englishmen  must  be  free.  But  the 
real  and  moat  most  serious  question  for 
students  of  contemiiorary  pplltiCB  is  not 
whether  a  solemn  adjuration  Of  this 
kind  Is  or  Is  not  old-fashioned,  but 
whether  it  Is  sincere  and  corresponds 
with  deep  and  abiding  principles  in 
human  nature.  What-  do  we  see  in 
Ulster  today?  'VV'a  observe  the  promul- 
gation of  a  comprehensive  pledge,  bind- 
ing all  those  of.  a  particular  nationality 
and  rclitrion  to  -oppose  Irish  home  rule 
in  any  and  every  shape.  We  find  that 
special  prayers  have  been  composed  by 
a  composite  compnittee  of  clergymen 
and  laymen  of  all  the  Protestant  com- 
inunltles  in  Ulster,  and  that  a  form  of 
rfeliglous  service  has  been  drawn  up 
which  l.«  to  precede  the  signing  of  the 
covenant   this  day  week,  on  Ulster  Day. 


And  the  one  constant  note,  both  of  cov- 
enant   and    of    special    petition,    is    the 
.•fame.     It  rings  masterfully  and   It  rings' 
true.       It    records    the    <leternilnutlon    of 
the    mOHt    virile    portion      of      the      Irish, 
nalUin     to     rc*ilst     tlie     imposition     upon, 
tlii-msclveji   of   un   alien   and    liosllle   gov-' 
eniment,    and    of    a    form    of    religious 
faith    wirnUi    UlsterTuen,    as    such,   abhor. 
How  does  the  administration  wlilch  at 
present   rules    the     destinies     of      Great 
Britain    propose    to    meet   a   grave   crisis 
like    this?      It    is    by    no    means    the    flrst^ 
time   that    we    have    asked    tlie    fiui'stlon, 
and.   unfortunately,  it  seems   that  it  will 

I  not  1)6  the  last.  The  prevalent  attitude, 
80  far  as  we  can  discover,  of  radical 
politicians  is  to  speak  of  the  Ulstermen 
as   braggarts,   and   to   suggest   in   np  du- 

j  yious  terms  that  Sir  Kdward  Carson 
and  those  who  follow  his  lead  have  laid 

I  themselves  open   to  a  charge  of   trea.wn. 
Perliaps  we  need  not  spend   many  words 
in  dealing  witli  such  un  attitude,  ,ThoSi|i

ROMK,  Oct  17. — William  Marconi',: 
right  eye  was  removed  today  by  ])r. 
Bayardl,  a  noted  Turin  surgeon.  Mr. 
Marconi  was  .leriously  injured  on  Hep- 
tcmljer  25  in  a  motor  ear  accident  near 
Borghelto.  lie  was  removed  to  the 
hcspital  at  tlio  navy  deimrtment  at  .Spe- 
zla,  wlKM'e  lie  was  treated  for  several 
days. 

The  severe  contusions  and  swelllngH 
around  the  eye  prevented  a  thorough  «.'X- 
aminatlon  until  i-econtly.  It  was  found 
that  the  optic  nerve  had  been  affected. 
A  consultation  of  th.^  physicians  Was 
held  on  Tuesday  Just,  when  it  was,

Many  Conveniences  for  Traffic 
Crossing  the  Great  Water- 
way are  Nearing  Completion 
and  Otiiers  are  Projected 


LONDON.  Oct.  17.— Father  Thames  Is 
fretting  on  In  yenra,  but  thero  is  no  sign 
of  eenlle  decay  about  hlni.  At  many 
points  up  and  clown  tlie  great  water-way 
costly  Iniprovenionls  and  extenalons  are 
nearing  completion  or  being  projected, 
iind  a  now  tunnel,  a  new  bridge,  and 
gigantlo  new  doclts  are  some  of  the  con- 
veniences wMcli  are  bolnjc  added  tO  tb9 
faoiUtles    of    tliis    groat    port. 

The  new  tunnel,  the  fourth  uoder  the 
Thames  constructed  by  pi*  London 
county  council,  Is  a  footway  under  the 
river  connectlJMf,  Jfartt^  vo/i  QOUjlJ  Wool- 
wich, and  It  i(p^'ii^i^.li|f'J|^n«ii»«ip  aw- 
vice  to  th»..liii|||itrti  ^PQlatitm  on  «aeb 
lilde  of  tt^ttknr.  At  present  communi- 
cation betWMA'  tbe  two  banks  is  main- 
lalned  hy  m  t*tfv  opened  some  twonty 
j^oars  aso.  But  .the  broad'4>eamed 
ferry  boats,  althougb  they  have  done 
their  work  well»  are*  a  little  bit  slow 
end  antiquated  for  this  age  of  wireless 
telegrapl^y  and  picture  palaces.  Father 
Tbametv.  how9Ter»  does  not  intend  to 
"scrap"    them    entirely,    and    they    will

of  all  kinds  across  the  river  at 
that  point. 

The  new  tunnel  is  now  practically 
tsluid,  and  will  be  opened  in  tbe  last 
-It— is -iust  over  -»»fr 
fi«4a  Itt  lenctii,  and  the  top  of  It  runs 
fct  a  depth  of  68  feet  belpw  Trinity 
high  water  mark.  Its  «ost  has  been 
$435,000,  which  Is  very  email  as  tunnels 
under  the  Thames  go,  and  to  make  lit 
eome  7600  cubic  yards  have  been  taken 
rrom  the  earth,  consistins  mostly  Of 
Bolid  chalk. 

Great    Conveaieiioe. 

The  tunnel  will  be  an  enormous  Ooii* 
venlence  to  the  neighborhood,  above  all 
to  the  workers  who  have  to  get  Up  early 
in  the  morning.  Crossing  by  the  ferry 
In  the  early  hours  of  a  cold  and  fogjgy 
winter's  morning  has  hot  been  the 
pleasantest  of  trips.  After  October  the 
artisans  who  work  at  the  Arsenal  and 
elsewhere  wljl  step  Into  a  lift  built  to 
hold  40  people  at  a  time.  They  wlU 
drop  down  below  the  level  of  the  river 
and  find  themselves  In  a  long  tunnel 
11  feet  9  Inches  wide,  lined  with  white 
glazed  tiles  and  brilliantly  lit  by  elec- 
tricity. To  got  to  work  in  such  clr- 
cumatances  will  be  a  pleasure,  and  the 
terrors  of  foggy  mornings  will  be  com- 
pletely gone.  With  the  ferry  a  thick 
fog  throws  everything  out  of  gear. 
"VVorkmen  lose  half  a  day's  work,  and 
long  lines  of  lorries  and  vans  are  de- 
layed on  both  sides  of  the  river.  In  the 
course  of  a  year  the  fogs  stop  the  ferry 
service  for  hundreds  of  hours.  The  ve- 
hicles will  still  have  to  w.-ilt,  btit  foot 
passengers  will  be  quite  independent  of 
weather   conditions. 

Kew   Bridge. 

Within  a  few  days  London'.s  newest 
bridge  will  be  opened  for  traffic.  This 
is  the  fine  structure  which  crosses 
Deptford  Creek  at  its  juhctlon  with  the 
river  Ra^vensbourne,  and  which  has  cost 
$150,000.  It  is  built,  like  a  small  edition 
of  the  Tower  Bridge,  on  the  bascule 
6ystem,  so  that  vessels  of  quite  large 
size  can  proceed  under  it  further  up 
stream.  The  new  structure  is  45  feet 
wide,  and  is  throe  limes  the  width  of 
tlie  previous  bridge,  which  was  only  15 
feet  wide.  One  -of  Its  chief  effects  on 
the  traffic  economy  of  London  will  be 
that  it  win  allow  of  the  opening  of  a 
new  tramway  route  to  Greenwich  Coun- 
cil and  will  be  able  to  run  through 
tramcars  from  London  Bridge,  via  Too- 
ley  street.  Rotherhithc,  Deptford  Lower 
road,   and   Evelyn   street. 

El.sewhere  Father  Thames  is  commit- 
ted to  enormous  dock  improvements  and 
extensions.  It  is  announced  officially 
that  the  Port  ofjLondon  authority  have 
now  accepted  tenders  amounting  to  %Al,- 
750.000  for  work  to  be  begun  Imihe- 
diately.  This  work  forms  the  tirat  part 
of  the  extensive  Improvements  pre- 
sented by  Lord  Devonport  for  the  con- 
sideration of  the  authority  in  1911.  The 
whole  of  the  scheme  then  outlined  will 
involve  an  expenditure  of  over  $70,000,- 
000.  The  work  now  to  be  put  in  hand 
comprises  the  Albert  Dock  extension  and 
large  improvements  at  the  Kast  India. 
West  India,   London   and   Tilbury  docks.

8T.  PBTER-SBURG.  Oct.  17. — The  Society 
ifor  the  Prevention  of  Cruelty  to  Animals 
«hou1d  be  Interested  in  a  lawjiult  arising 
from  thfi  win  of  a  Rusjilan  prlncoas  who 
died    early    this    year. 

Amont  her  bequi-sta  >va«  one  of  |20,0ni) 
to  a  toy  terrier,  Olpsy,  with  the  provUo 
that  her  pet  should  be  entrusted  to  the 
charge  of  a  certain  very  old  friend,  whom 
she  named.  Within  six  months  (}|psy  fol- 
lowed her  mistress  to  the  grravi^;  nnd.  as 
oven  the  most  daintily  fed  and  luxuriously

Intact    when    she    passed    «wuy. 

The  lady  who  harl  tended  Gipsy  to  the 
last  took  It  for  Rrantcd  that  on  the  dog's 
death  she  would  succeed  to  the  properly, 
but  she  has  not  been  allowed  to  remain  In 
posaesslon  of  It  undisturbed.  A  claim  has 
be«n  formulated  on  behalf  of  an  offspring 
of  Gipsy's,  who,  being  a  puppy  of  high 
degree,  w»»  duly  retclsteied  at  birth.  The 
Judses  «r«  taking  some  time  to  consider 
th*lr   vardlot. 


What  sort  of  weather  will  it  be  next 
day?  For  the  last  week  this  question 
has  been  engaging  the  attention  of  all 
the  leading  meteorologists  of  Europe, 
at    two   conferences   held   in   London. 

Dr.  W.  Napier  Shaw,  the  lu'ad  of  the 
BrlUsh  Meteorological  Office  and  the 
president  of  tl»e  International  Commit- 
tee which  controls  the  operations  of  all 
those  whose  business  it  is  to  watch  the 
weather  of  these  latitudes,  has  given 
one  of  our  representatives  a  summary 
of  what  has  been  done.  It  is  an  ab- 
sorbing story  of  diverse  activities,  all 
centring  In  the  clock  at  Greenwich — 
for  if  llioro  were  not  some  arbitrary 
centre  of  the  abstraction  wo  call  time, 
bow  would  any  simultaneous  observa- 
l^Oi|pi^_;||i  ;^!inredr  These  simultaneous 
otwerniltena  taa've  now  extended  east- 
ward through  the  Russian  empire  to  the 
Asiatic  shore  of  the  Pacific. . 
•  And  every  Warwickshire  tarini<||^  an* 
every  Liverpool  shipmaster  ready  IjhHrli 
voyage,  no;w  reads  in  jhis  weathw%t«- 
cast  tbe^ijesult  of  an  expert  deduction, 
from  the  sdeatifio  records  of  th« 
weather  prevattlng  in  the  nortbmv  bait 
of  the  earth. 

But  we  do  not  know  as  much  as  w»' 
desire  about  tbe  weather  towards  the 
north  pole.  We  have  dally  reports  from 
Iceland,  by  cable.  In  fact.  Iceland's 
chief  function,  with  regard  to  the  rest 
of  the  world,  is  to  teU  us  what  her 
weather  is  like.     Similar  Information  Is 

■tramea  rt-om  twa  sBtmi  ct  o>mui— a. 

and  from  the  eastern  end  of  Iiabrador. 
Bur  the  cables  that  can  tell  us  in  time 
are  not  yet  laid.  From  Spi^zbergetf,  it 
A?..bpped  the  j'eports  will  ^qon  be  ar- 
fivlng. 

An  important  raeommendation  ar- 
rived at  durthf  the  week  was  that  Bu- 
ropean  countries  should  coHoperate  In 
the  exchange  of  information  aa  to  the 
weather  prevailing  In  desolate  oceans. 
Squares  have  been  marked  out.  In  the 
middle  of  the  Atlantic,  the  Pacific  and 
the  Indian  oceans.  From  these,  on  the 
trade  routes,  wireless  Information  Is  to 
be  sent,  by  the  ships,  and  to  be  at  once 
despatched  by  the  country  which  re- 
ceives it  to  all  the  rest. 
"Sv  Storm  Signals  by  STlght. 

The  experts  have  also  considered  the 
Shore  lights  which  are  to  /announce 
threatened  storms.  By  daylight  It  is 
easy — a  cone  point  upwards  for  a 
northerly  gale.  One  point  downwards 
for  a  southerly.  An  international  agree- 
ment regarding  night  signals  Is  impos- 
sible. Some  (wuntrlos  will  not  have 
three  colored  lanters,  some  will  not 
have  two.  So  a  dual  international  sys- 
tem is  recommended — an  identical  code 
for  all  the  maritime  nations  which  pre- 
fer two  lights  and  another  for  those 
which  prefer  three.  France  recom- 
mends three.  England  may  accept 
three.'  But  the  United  States  will  not 
have  three   at  any  price. 

Kussla  wants  a  wider  field  for  the 
evening  reports — which  means  evening 
at  Grenwlch  but  breakfast  time  In  Sibe- 
ria. So  It  Is  recommended  that  all 
Europe  and  all  Northern  Asia  shall  co- 
operate with  her  and  that  tlie  dally  ob- 
servations, all  expressed  in  Gp 
time,  shall  be  taken  in  Western 
at  7  a.  m.,  1  p.  m.  and  6  p.  m.,  and'jn 
European  and  Asiatic  Russia  at  6 
a.  m.,  noon  and  6  p.  m. 

Information  Is  now  to  be  obtained, 
where  the  observers  are  tvipable  of  giv- 
ing It,  as  to  a  phenomenon  of  only  sec- 
ondary importance — the  velocity  and  di- 
rection of  cloud  motion. 


CLEVER  DETECTIVES 


With  and  Without  the  Aid  of  Dogs  the 
Bsrlin  Folloa   So   Oood  Work 


BBBL.IN,  Oct.  17. — The  Berlin  detective 
fores  showed  double  proof  of  Us  cleverness 
In  the  small  hours  of  the  morning  by  rapid- 
ly followlnK  up  the  discovery  of  two 
mysterious  deaths  and  arresllns  suspected 
persons  within  two  hours  of  receiving  In- 
formation. In  the  first  case  they  were 
largely  helped  by  the  excellent  scant  of 
tbe    police    Uos    Klott, 

The  police  had  been  Informed  that  after 
an  uproarious  scene  a  man  had  been  seen 
running  away  from  a  waste  Hpace  In  the 
Oranlenstrnssf,  where  a  body  was  dis- 
covered. Within  twenty  minutes  the  dog, 
which  had  bren  allowi-d  to  scent  a  blood- 
stained Jacket  found  near  the  victim,  came 
upon  a  workman  evidently  running  away, 
who  was  so  startled  at  such  a  rapid  cap- 
ture that  he  Inetantly  Informed  the  police 
that  two  comrades  hud  also  been  connected 
with  the  murder,  and  that  one  of  those 
wns  the  actual  murderer.  The  two  men, 
quickly  arrested,  admitted  some  connection 
with  the  crime.  Ail  were  detained  In 
custody. 

In  the  second  case  some  late  home- 
comers  noticed  a  couple  walking  alonfr  the 
street  supporting  a  Woman  and  attempting 
to  reach  a  secluded  corner  safe  from  ob- 
servation. .Soon  afterwards  the  pair  wore 
suon  without  the  woman.  A  soaroh  led  to 
the  discovery  of  the  body  of  a  servant  girl 
half  hidden  in  a  doorway.  Rapid  Investiga- 
tion by  ihe  detectives  caused  them  to  In- 
quire at  a  house  a  quarter  of  a  mile  distant, 
where  Ihoy  found  u  cashier  and  his  wife 
answering  to  the  description  given  by 
•evora!  witnesses.  The  couple,  (juestlonod, 
Clnally  admlltod  that  they  knew  the  girl 
hsd  committed  suicide  In  their  apartment, 
and,  feating  trouble,  Ihey  decided  to  throw 
the  Ijorlj-  Into  the  Spree.  The  theory  of 
suicide  la  possible,  as  the  dead  girl  waa 
found  to  be  cnrryJnR  a  phial  of  poison  and 
the   body    was    not    wounded.

VICTORIA  PREPARING 

FOR  PANAMA  TRADE 

Mr.     BKcOaffey     VTrltea     an     Interesting 

Article  for  The  Pacific  Marine 

Bevlew 


The  October  issue  of  The  Paclflc  Mar- 
ine Review,  published  In  Seattle,  de- 
votes a  large  amount  of  Its  apace  tc 
the  shlftlni?  of  the  trade  routes  of  the 
w-orld  cn.Tftquoit  on  the  opening  of  the 
Ft  nnnia  canal,  and  the  effect  <if  this 
on  the  poi  I  ■>  of  I.rltlsh  Columbia.  The 
principal  article  of  this  number  is  that 
on  "The  Harbor  of  Victoria"  and  the 
improvements  planned  by  the  Dominion 
government,  fron-  tho  pen  of  the  sec- 
retary of  the  Vancouver  Island  Develop- 
ment League,  Mr.  Ernest  McGaffey.  The 
I'rst  page  .shows  the  plan  of  the  new 
Outer  harbor  which  at  an  Initial  cost 
of  one  ml  a  half  mllllono  will  afford 
nearly  ten  thousand  feet  of  berthing 
fcr  octTinur 'np  steamers  and  a  series  of 
well  reproduced  pliotographs  depict  the 
present  doucs  and  the  big  liners  of  the 
C.  I'.  K.,  the  Grand  Trunk  Pacific  and 
the  Blue  Funnel  companies,  to  mention 
a  few  of  those  at  present  operating 
between  Victoria  and  Australia  and  the 
port»s  of  the  Orient,  as  well  as  In  the 
coast  service. 

The  wr'ti-r  points  out  that  Victoria 
will  s-hortly  be  the  final  furthest  west 
terminal  of  five  great  transcontinental 
railway  systems,  the  C.  P.  R.,  C.  N.  11., 
fJrand  Tnmk,  Great  Northern  and  Pacific 
(irnat  Eastern  railways,  and  that  the 
final  link  with  the  mainland,  the  bridg- 
ing of  Seymour  Narrows,  cannot  long  be 
delaj-ed,  .since  an  outlet  for  middle 
Canadian  wheat  for  shipment  through 
the  Panama  canal  will  soon  be  a  vital 
necessity. 

Tl;c  raplillty  with  which  the  shipping 
trade  of  Victoria  Is  growing  Is  shown 
by  a  comparison,  of  the  present  with 
the  two  previous  years;  the  amount  of 
cargo  handled  Inst  year  being  over  twice 
the  total  of  the  year  1910,  an  Increase 
of   over    100    per   cent. 

The  concluding  pnrngrnph  states  thiit 
splendid  manufacturing  sites  are  avail- 
able along    the    harbors   of    this   port.

once  after  the  Mount  Katmai  volcanic 
eruption.  The  town  was  i  named  after 
Capt.  K.  W.  Perry,  commander  of  tho 
United  States  revenue  cutter  Manning, 
which  landed  refugees  from  Kodiak 
island,  where  the  fall  of  ashes  from  the 
,'Olcano  had  driven  them  from  their 
homes.  Capt.  McMullen  says  that  Perry 
Village  is  albout  seventy  miles  -west  of 
Chlgnlk  and  between  Chignik  and  iTnga. 

The  Dora,  on  her  voyage  from  the 
westward  picked  up  a  number  of  destt- 
tute  natives  and  landed  theni  at  Perry 
Village,  where  they  were  cared  for  by 
government  offlcers. 

Capt.  McMullen  says:  ^hat  the  effects 
of  the  volcano  are  still  In  evidence.  Vol- 
canic aah  was  floating  on  the  water  all 
the  way  from  Shellkof  straits  to  Unlmak

men  who  came  over  to  make  a  holiday 
cruise   on    the   scht>oner. 

It  was  at  first  Intended  to  tow  the 
schooner  across  to  the  Sound,  but  the 
new'  owners  were  approached  by  some 
friends  who  thought  It  would  be  a  nice 
holid,ay  Jaunt  to  sail  the  schooner  to 
Seattle,  and  this  course  was  followed. 
The  Allle  I.  Algar  is  to  be  re-reglstercil

equipped  with  an  engli'c  and  placed  In

In  a  dense  fog  the  steam  schooner 
Marshfleld.  Capt.  Julius  G.  Ahlln,  in 
trying  to  find  her  way  out  the  heads, 
picked  out  a  berth  on  tho  rocks  Just 
west  of  Point  Orient  and  smashed  in 
its  stempost  above  and  below  the  water 
line  on  Tuesday.  But  for  th(5  fact  that 
tho  schooner  was  proceeding  at  a  dead 
slow  speed,  she  would  havo  piled  up 
and  added  another  wreck  to  the  big 
list  on  the  Pacific  coast  for  tho  year. 

Tho  Mnrshfleld  left  Point  Orient 
bound  for  Hardy  Creek  with  a  light 
cargo.  Captain  .\hlln,  «s  usual,  was 
hugging  the  north  head  to  clear  away 
In  good  time,  but  misjudged  his  shore 
distance  in  tho  fog.  Even  after  the 
craft  struck  tho  rock,  tho  lookout  was 
unable  to  see  the  Lime  Point  light, 
200   yards  to  starboard. 

Several  weeks  on  drydock,  with  the

pleased  to  learn  that  there  is  at  least 
one  dreaddd  disease  that  science  has 
been  able  to  cure  In  all  Its  stages,  and 
that  is  Catarrh.  Hall's  Catarrh  Cure  Is 
the  only  positive  cure  now  known  to  the 
medical  fraternity.  Catarrh  being  a 
constitutional  disease,  requires  a  con- 
slttutlonul  treatment.  Hall's  Catarrh 
Cure  Is  taken  Internally,  acting  directly 
upon  the  blood  and  mucous  surfaces  of 
the  system,  thereby  destroying  the 
foundation  of  the  disease,  and  giving 
the  patient  strength  by  building  up  the 
con.stitutlon  and  assisting  nature  In  do- 
ing its  work.  The  proprietors  have  so 
much  faith  in  Its  curative  powers  that

SEATTL,E  "Wash,,  Oct  17.— Complst- 
ing  a  stormy  voyage  from  Nome,  St. 
Michael  and  Kotzebue  sound  ports,  the 
big  freighter  Leelanaw^  of  the  Western 
Alaska  .Steamship  Company,  is  in:  port. 
Captain  Q.  W.  Brown,  the  vessel's  mas- 
ter, reported  a  rough  voyage,  the  vessel 
steaming  through  a  fiuccession  of  heavy 
gales  both  in  Bering  Sea  and  this  eide 
of  Unlmak  pass.  However,  the  vessel 
reached ,  port  without  mishap,  save  the 
loss  of  a  lifeboat,  which  was  carried 
over  the  side  by  a  gigantic  wave  and 
crushed  into  kindling  wood. 

The  Loelanaw  was  forced  to  hurry 
out  of  Kotzebuo  sound  before  all  of  her 
cargo  was  discharged.  By  asrecment 
with  the  underwriters,  the  vessel  was  to 
leave  the  sound  by  October  1,  and  Cap- 
tain Brown  sailed  for  Nome  with  part  of 
a  shipment  of  coal  still  in  the  vessel's 
hold.  The  coal  was  discharged  at  that 
port.  The  Leelanaw  touched  at  Kee- 
walik,  Peering,  Kotzebue,  Teller,  Nome, 
Qoiovln  and  St.  Michael.  Her  only  car- 
go for  Seattle  was  16,000  muskrat  skins, 
loaded  at  Kcewallk,  and  seven  big  Mala- 
mutc  dog."?,  In  charge  of  their  owner.  H. 
W.  Coffin,  taken  aboard  at  Deerlng. 
Coffin,  who  Is  a  veteran  mining  man 
of  the  far  North,  said  last  night  that 
he  expected  to  drive  the  malamutcs 
over  tho  trail  this  winter  to  Nome,  go- 
ing by  way  of  Valdez. 

Tho  l>eelanaw  sailed  from  Seattle  on 
September  4  with  a  cargo  of  2500  tons. 
Including  heavy  dredging  machinery  for 
nilnf-a  near  Candle,  and  shipments  of 
lumber  for  porta  In  the  far  North.  She 
lias  been  chartered  by  the  Pacific  Coast 
Steamship  Company  for  one  voyage 
from    Seattle    to    ,San    Francisco.

arrived  yesterday  morning  from  Nome 
and  St.  Michael  with  652  passengers  and 
valuable  shipments  of  gold  bullion  and 
furs.  The  Victoria  also  encountered 
heavy  weather  on  the  way  down  from

said  he  was  not  out  o£  danger.  His 
physicians  were  discussing  among  them- 
selves tonight  the  time  liooessary  for 
him  to  remain  In  the  hospital.  It  was

The  entire  staff  of  the  Victoria  hospital

the  entire  staff  from  the  matron  to  the 
cook,  quit  because  the  board  would  not 
come  out  flatfooted  with  a  broad  pub-

One  of  the  Important  functipns  of 
the  great  European  stale  bankis  Is  the 
regulation  of  the  money  market.  Each 
big  .^tate  hank  is  supposed  to  keep  a 
watchful  eye  on  the  trade  and  financial 
conditions  of  Its  own  country  In  par- 
ticular, and  of  the  rest  of  the  world 
In  freneral.  If  the  governors  or  rulers 
of  the  hank  consider  that  Hncculatlon 
Is  carried  to  excess,  or  that  the  mer- 
cantile community  is  becoming  danger- 
ously overextended  In  its  eager  search

Interest  rate,  it  IS  easy  to  see  that  the 
pressure  upon  the  banks.  Would 'be 
sen.slbly  released.  At  the  cduint^B  <pf 
the  banks  repayment  of  loans  would 
be  apt  to  proceed  on  a  Iftriiier  acale: 
and  In  the  banklns  parlors  the  vlslt- 
ln<r  business  men  would  |jB(t^:l|toresent 
so  forcibly  that  they  mCtlPflpj^pi  more 
money  for  purposes  of  enlnrsrins:  their

fcrrli^''^ji#tti|i'!i'|iiir  extension.  ','' There'-' Is 
no  reprularly  pnlili.'shed  rate  of  discount 
applying  to  standard  commercial  paper. 
The  paper  offered  to  the  banks  by  the 
Tiierehants  and  manufacturers  varies, 
greatly  in  finality.  Nearly  every  dls- 
countlnsr  customer  has  his  ,. nicely

But  nevertheless  It  is  certain  that 
the  rates  applied  to  the  mass  Of  credits 
now  in  force  are  being  gradually 
rnlsed.  The  big  borrower  who  has 
hitherto  enjoyed  a  finely  cut  rate  does 
not  "feel  quite  easy  In  his  mind  that 
the  credit  for  the  next  ensuing  season 
can  be  obtained  on  the  sam^  favorable 
terms.  The  banks  lately  completed 
their  arranerements  with  the  'grain 
trade  for  the  flnancinsr  of  the  western 
crops  of  lfll2.  No  announcements  were 
made  of  an  Increased  .«r.lle  of  banking 
charges;  but  it  may  bo.  assumed  that 
the  agreements  between  the  banks  on 
the  one  side  and  the  elevator  and  mill- 
ing companies  on  the  other  reflected  in 
some  way  the  tightened  monetary  situ- 
ation. Perhap.s  in  some  cases  a  higher 
rato  of  discount  would  be  demanded; 
In  others  the  banks  mlfrht  ,  renulre 
their  borrowers  to  pay  for  minor  ser- 
vices formerly  given  without  charge; 
and  it  is  reasonably  certain  that  In 
every  case,  elaborate  precautions  would 
be  taken  to  prevent  the  grain  men 
lioldlng  the  grnln  for  speculative  pur- 
poses. 

And  the  .same  with  other  borrowrrs 
— they  all  have  to  give  consideration 
In'.-'ome  w-ay  to  the  matter  of  tight 
money.  The  general  opinion  seems  to 
be  that  flierc  will  be  little  or  no  re- 
■laxatlon  during  the  remainder  of  1912. 
It  is  recognl7,ed  that  the  work  of  crop 
movlnsr  will  occupy  the  attention  of 
the  bankH  in  October,  Xovember  and 
December.  .And  it  is'  reasonable 
eoough  to  expict  that  when  the  wheat 
movement  Is  financed  there  will  be 
more  money  availahlo  for  other  pur- 
poses, ,

sources in  the  centres;  and  when  the 
money  market  In  ■  New  Vork  has  been 
tight  In  the  precedlnsr  fall,  relief  l.s

American  conditions,  as  regards  bank-

apply  In  Onada.  Their  situation  re-

lected again  and  returned  to  the  Cv'n-

(Canadian  lianks  pay  out  small  l)omln- 
lon  notes  for  currency  In  the  fall,  the 
same  thing  occurs  In  Canada.  The  Do- 
minion "ones,"  "twos"  and  "fives"  are

when  they  come  back  in  the  latter  part 
of  December  and  In  Uanuary,  in  the 
form  of  deposits  and  repayments  of 
loans,  the  bank  position  is  strength- 
ened. But  Invariably  the  O.inadian

panding the  Issue  of  their  own  notes, 
which  are  noji  actual  money  at  nil. 
When  these  not«8  come  back  they  have 
to  be  redeemed.  In  part  by  specie  or 
legals.  So  the  redemptiori  of  note

It  la  quite  possible  that  next  sprInK,

Already    the   story   «f  fire   folIoVlni 

a  railway   collision  In  America  has  be> 

come  a  rarity.     The  American  railways 

are    now    building    their    carriages    en?- 

tirely    of  steel — not  nierelj'   the  chassis 

and    external    superstructure,    but      the 

entire    interior.      This   secures   not   only 

rigidity   and   freedom   from   combustlbla 

material    In    a    crisis,    but      eliminates 

splintering,   such  as   adds   materially   to 

the  toll  of  life  In  every  accident  under 

the   old   regime.  '     . 

^S   Many- of    the    new    Pullman    cars    in 

*  ''America    lack    nothing    of    the   comfort 

associated   with    the    same    type  of   car 

on   the   English   railways,   yet'  they  are 

entirely    of,  steel      construction.    '    The 

ifigpjinderground    railways     of    Londoli    are 

^^jBOing    much     to    popularlsse      the      steel 

railway   car  in   England,    but   the   trunk 

.railways   have    a    great   deal    to    do    In 

Jls  dlrectlbn.     It  is  doubtful  whether 

*^«^'^' the  •  death-roll   in    the   recent  Cheshire

ff^i^lthlng    like    so   large    had    the    carrlaj;*-!- 

Pljvjjieen    constructed    of      non-combustible 

'material. 

.Some  details  of  the  strides  ^lilr 
niade  In  the  ellminetlon  of  fire  risks 
were  given  to  a  representative  by  Mr. 
.Sollers.  an  export  In  art  metal  ejpin-

now  being  constructed  entirely  of  fire- 
resisting  materials.  The  Cunarder 
Carmania  since  Her  partial  demolition 
by  fire  has  been  rolju lit  with  steel 
partitions  and  steel  doors,  and  I  defy 
the  average  person  using  her  cabins 
to  discover  at  first  sight  that  her  fit- 
tings are  now  Steel  and  not  wood. 
Many  Scotch  libraries  are  how  equipped 
with  steel  shelves  for  the  books,  and 
here  in  London  there  is  a  dally  growing 
demand  for  steel  office  furniture, 
business  men  who  have  spent  thou- 
sands in  reconstructing  tlielr  premisi'-s 
with  ferro-cpncrete  and  other  flre- 
rcsistlng  materials  are  not  content 
wltli  securing  safety  for  the  structure 
alone.  They  are  accordingly  ,  fitting 
.steel  partitions,  counters,  desks,  shelv- 
ing, and  even  have  ."itcel  chairs.  Whore 
for  some  reason  wood  has  been  re- 
tained as  the  table  surface,  plate- 
glass    is    being   used    as    a  covering. 

"This  cnlighionmont,  which  has 
gained  a  firm  hold  In  British  bu.slneps 
centres,  will  ne.xt  spread  to  domestic; 
life.  Architects  will  soon  be  providing 
cottage  homes  with  steel  partitions  of 
a  fire-resisting  character,  so  that  out- 
i'reaks  may  be  always  confined  to  their 
places  of  origin.  When  the  public  rea- 
lize tliat  there  is  nothing  in  the  way 
of  wooden  hou.seluild  furniture  that  it 
Is  not  possible  to  reproduce  in  steel 
without    loss      of      attractiveness      and 


beauty,  then  even  more  r«pl<1  progress 
will    be    made."

two  of  the  greatest  luxuries  human-

five  senses.  "The  Chocolate  Soldier" 
has  set  two  continents  singing  from

opera  which  has  come  into  the  life  of

'  Would   Harnesa    8t.   Z,awT«nc« 

OTTAWA,  Oct.  n. — Undaunted  by 
two  years  of  strenuous  opposition  to 
their  project,  the  Long  Sault  Develop- 
Ihent  Company,  which  prnpose.s  the 
damming  of  the  St.  Lawrence  river  on 
the  American  side,  continues  unabated 
its  campaign  to  ace;  u  I  re  Its  charter  for 
the  damming  of  the  St.  Lawrence  river 
near  Cornwall,  from  the  United  States 
to  the  Canadian  shores,  with  the  al- 
leged intention  of  developing  at  an 
early  date  an  enormous  amount  of  elec- 
trical energy.  Though  Canada,  through 
its  parliament,  its  commission  of  con- 
servation and  many,  of  its  private  In- 
terests, has  denied  the  company  thr 
right  to  a  charter  for  the  project  a." 
being  contrary  to  the  best  interests  of 
Canada,  and  though  the  company  has 
so  far  failed  to  have  its  charter  sanc- 
tioned by  the  federal  authorities  of  the  i 
United  States,  still  the  scheme,  the 
consummfitlon  of  which  means  millions 
of  dollars  to  the  company,  is  not  on*- 
which  It  will  readily  rellnqul.sh,  and 
the  indlcjjtions  are  th&t  no  stone  will 
be    left    unt\irned    to    win.

YOU  CAN  HAVE  A  HOME-BUILDING  LOT  IN    THIS    FINEST    OF     ALL     MODERATE 
PRICED  RESIDENTIAL  SUBDIVISIONS  BY  BUYING    NOW,    AT  PRICES    AND    ON 

TERMS  THAT  WILL  NEVER  OCCUR  AGAIN.

Two  Homes 


Showin^y  character  of  "Cadboro  Vale" 

You  pay  from  $1,400  upwards,  dependino-  upon  the  location  of  your  lot— 
a]thou,i>h  every  lot  is  well  situated— on  terms  of  one-quarler  cash  down  and 
the  balance  in  1,  2  and  3  vears. 

You  get  (on  completion  of  payment)  an  indefeasible  title  to  a  one-third- 
of-an-acre  lot  in  the  finest  location  on  Cadboro  Bay,  a  lovely  valley,  so  situated 
that  it  has  been  known  for  years  to  those  familiar  with  the  district,  as  unusu- 
ally sunny  and  sheltered  and  beautiful.  The  lots  look  out  of  a  frame  of  charm- 
ing greenery  on  Cadboro  Bay,  and  beyond  to  the  broad  (iulf  and  to  the  dis- 
tant, though  sharply-outlined,  Olympics. 

Two  nice  homes  have  already  been  built  in    "Cadboro  Vale,"    and  others 


Already  Built    are  being  planned  by  delighted  owners  of  lots.

Pointers 
For 
You 


"Cadboro  Vale"  has  been  cleared  and  tcnced,  but  numbers  of  magnificent 
oak  and  maple  shade  trees  have  been  preserved.  The  j)r()pertv  is  blessed  with 
plenty  of  pure,  cold  water.  It  is  near  the  new  Cadboro  Bav'^holcl,  near  the 
beach  and  just  beyond  the  famous  "Ui)lands."  The  surrounding  neighbor- 
hood is  well  built  up  with  bungalows  of  a  high  standard,  and  good  transporta- 
tion is  assured,  as  the  "Uplands"  line  row  nearing  completion,  is  but  a  few 
minutes'  walk  distant.  However,  it  ismore  than  likely  that  within  a  short  time 
a  line  from  the  terminus  of  the 'T^plands"  line  will  be  extended  to  the  B.  C. 
Electric  Company's  new  park  which  lie.^just  to  the  north  of  "Cadboro  Vale," 
with  only  a  line  fence  separating  the  two  properties. 

IT  DOESN'T  COST  MUCH  TO  OWN  A  LOT  IN  "CADBORO  VALE"  NOW.  THERE  IS  AB- 
SOLUTELY NO  Qin^.STION  ABOUT  THE  FUTURE  OF  THIS  DISTRICT  AND  OF  THIS 
PROPERTY.    THERE  IS  NO  QUIi:STION  ABOUT  ITS  VALUE  AS    AN   INVESTMEm; 

ESPECIALLY  AT  OUR   PRICES.  ; 

The  Thing  to  Do  Is  to  Buy  Now 

NOTE— Let  us  show  you  ''Cadboro  Vale''  today.    We  can  motor  there  from  our  office,  and 
we'll  start  any  time  that  suits  you.  ^

Hand-Made 


Shovels 


^^iS^^'  'T'^^se  celebrated  shovels  are  called  hand-made  be- 
cause they  are  formed  on  wooden  blocks  by  workmen. 
Although  this  is  expensive  work,  it  gives  results  that 
machinery  cannot  give. 

THOROUGHLY  TESTED  ; 

All  Shovels  are  thoroughly  tested  by  a  strafa 
being  placed  on  each  handle  that  is  greater  than  any 
shovel  is  ever  called  upon  to  stand  in  actual  work.  ^ 

Their  Good  Points 

They  are  lighter  than  any  other  make  of  the  same 
size,  wear  longer  and  arc  liked  better  by  the  men.

Adjustability — E  a  s  i  1  y  adjusted 
and  erected  to  fit  the  contour  of  the 
ground. 


SPECIAL  FEATURES         ' 

Galvanizing — W  i  r  e  thoroughly 
galvanized  before  weaving,  rendered 
thereby  practically  everlasting. 

Elasticity — Elasticity  amply  suffi- 
cient to  provide  for  all  necessary  ex- 
pansion and  contraction  under  vary- 
ing temperatures.

I  "IIP  have  horses  of  all  classes  for  sale  and  are    ^. 
ready  at  all  times  to  exhibit  such  to  intending 
purchasers.     It  will  pay  you  to  see  us  before 
purchasing. 

Harness  for  Sale 

We  have  new  and  second-hand  sets — double 
and  single,  for  sale  at  reasonable  rates — Far- 
mers should  see  these,  as  they  are  suitable  for 
light  driving. 


Gabs 


Do  you  know  that  our  Glass  Front  Carriages 
are  at  your  disposel  at  $2.00  per  hour? 


Victorias 


If  you  wish,  we  can  furnish  a  Victoria,  at 
per  hour,  $2.00;  single  hour,  $2.50.  These 
vehicles  accommodate  three  persons  and  are 
most  suitable  for  ladies  doing  afternoon  calling.

Better  Single  or  Double  Traps  cannot  be  found 
on  the  Pacific  Coast.  Single  Horse  and  Trap — 
Morning,  $2.50;  Afternoon,  $3.00. 


Boarders 


We  board  your  horse,  look  after  your  trap  and 
harness — Per  month,  $25.00.  Our  object  is 
to  please  our  i>atrons.  We  are  responsible  to 
them  as  to  safey  and  damage  done  to  furniture 
or  goods.  Our  drivers,  we  believe,  are  civil  and 
careful,  and  seldom  knowingly  overcharge.  If 
by  any  chance  a  mistake  occurs,  come  to  the 
office  or  notify  us  at  once.  In  other  woi'ds, 
give  us  an  opportunity  to  put  right  anything 
that  displeases  you. 


iiaepi  *  eri

tra man  to'help  the  charges  will  be  increased  to

Baggage  and  Express 

In  this  department  prompt  delivery  is  the  im- 
portant factor.  If  you  are  catching  a  steamer 
or  train,  you  like  to  know  that  your  luggage 
or  packages  will  be  at  the  wharf  or  station  in 
good  time  to  depart  with  you.  What  is  more 
annoying  than  searching  for  your  belongings 
a  minute  before  your  steamer  sails  or  your 
train  pulls  out?  This  is  offset  by  our  claim 
checks.  Our  drivers  check  your  baggage  at 
your  residence.  You  present  the  claim  check 
to  the  baggage  master — show  your  ticket— he 
then  gives  you  the  railway  or  steamer  check, 
and  that  is  all.  You  then  go  on  your  way 
rejoicing.  If  we  cannot  attend  to  your  order 
we  will  tell  you  and  thus  avoid  suspense. 

Express  and  General 
Drayage 

We  have  twenty-seven  Express  and  Delivery 
Wagons.  For  the  use  of  one  of  these  we  make 
a  charge  of — per  hour,  $1.00.

BUT  there  are  qnly  ten  dozen  to  be  sold  at  this  pricft. 
If  we  hadn't  purchased  tlicm  at  a  special  discount  it 
would  have  been  impossible  to  sell  them  at  such  a  low 
figure,  but  as  the  matter  standis/you  are  to  have  the  benefit  of 
the  low  cost. 

T-hey  are  made  of  a  good  black  felt  and  represent  the  latest 
ideas  in  men's  hats  for  fall  and  winter  wear.  \^ou  should  see

50  dozen  at  a  big  price  concession,  this  offer  would  have 
been  an  impossibility.     A  jobber,  who  was  overstocked, 
let  us  have  this  lot  at  what  our  buyer  calls  a  snap. 

There  are  both,  imported  and  Canadian-made  shirts  in  the
